Many years ago I was on a train with my astronomically wealthy friend. We wanted a smoke but it was banned. Late night train, long journey, no other passengers. When the ticket inspector turned-up my friend tried to pay two fines in cash and then sparked-up a cigarette…
In some Nordic countries I believe fines are tied to your annual income so a fine - in theory - should hurt everyone the same.
I’ve heard that, too, and think most fines should be that way. The rich “get away” with a lot because they can afford the fines.
