No kidding. I spent a year there and couldn't believe some of the outragous fines they had to deal with. Of course that was in 1998. I've heard it's even worse now.

How is that possible, its like saying you either take the manslaughter charge but if you fight it and lose you have to take the death penalty.

Yeah it is ridiculous for sure. We have a bit of it, as in they will stick you with court cost etc. but the actual ticket can't be doubled or any of that crap.

sililar $hite here modelled on the same system

in the UK its 3 points per speeding fine and a £60 sterling fine. get 12 points (i dont know the time frame there sorry ) and youre banned from driving (dont know how long for)

in Ireland, you get 2 points per offence and an 80 euro fine. if you contest this and lose, the points double and the fine goes up to a max of 800 euros AFAIK. guilty until proven innocent

if you clock up 12 points in 3 years here, you get a 6 month driving ban also but the more points on your licence, the higher your insurance premium. however most companies dont load you for having 2 points but if youre over that they will.

pretty much sums it all up mate. you can defend yourself if accused of murder here but try to get away with a speeding case and theyll hunt you down like nobodys business

if it were all about road safety like they claim, there would be no need for fines anyway. id be more concerned with the insurance costs and the possible ban myself. im just glad i got my countermeasures in time for this years laserfest here
