Up here in BC, we have a points system for traffic violations. A typical speeding-just-a-bit ticket would earn you 3 points. But 3 points get removed from your balance every year, so it's like being able to have one 'free' speeding ticket per year. When your points exceed 3 points your insurance rates go up and if I remember right there is a threshold at which you can no longer purchase insurance. So the points are a pretty good enforcement system for most people. Of course it still won't stop the people willing to drive without insurance or a valid license, but that's a different (smaller) category of offenders :).
