Sure, a $100, $200, or more ticket is expensive and a lot of money to some people it allows the people who can afford it to easily rationalize the behavior.
"It's only $200 bucks it's clearly not that big of an issue, if it was a real danger it would be more expensive"
However the speed blinkers let you know you're doing something wrong and these condition you to feel guilty therefore slowing down.
- seanmcdirmid 12y agoMost people don't worry about the speeding ticket cost, but the increased insurance premium that goes with it.
- rockpoodle 12y agoAgreed, insurance premium hikes are big compared to the fine. It's usually cheaper to hire a lawyer...though that also costs more than the fine.
