Speed until you max out your social security benefit is a crazy incentive.

  You can also max out the points on your license and your insurance companies patience.

    That happens either way, the discussion is about having an effective fine to discourage people and crediting the person's social security account clearly doesn't do that.

      I don't think you actually understand how the social security program works.

        Just saying someone doesn't understand something because they disagree with your idea is not a constructive argument. You pay in monthly based on income up to a maximum amount. If you say a speeding fine just counts towards my monthly contribution and is deducted from what I have to pay anyway why not speed?

          Ah misunderstanding, idea is paying the fine wouldn't effect normal FICA contributions. So a $100 ticket means your out $100 now with the small consultation that you might get it back in 30-40 years via a slightly higher SS check.
