Here is a thought from outside the box...and it deals with those who don't want to pay money when caught speeding. How about a driving prohibition instead of money? Maybe a 30 day prohib for a regular speeding...and a 60 day for excessive...then a due care could be a 6 month prohib. A street racing would be a jail term or a 1 year prohib and whatever other terms RS members could come up with. This would immediately squash those who claim VTs are just for revenue collection and not about about making people comply with traffic laws. What do you think? As a matter of interest, in Nova Scotia back more than 40 years ago, anyone convicted for even a regular speeding ticket got an automatic 2 week prohibition, in addition to the fine.
