The Rich Can Finally Feel a Speeding Ticket San Francisco just made speeding fines scale with your income. A millionaire caught driving 30 mph over the limit won’t pay $200 like everyone else — they’ll pay thousands. The idea: equality through pain. For the first time, the law hits the rich where it hurts — their wallets. The system is modeled after Finland’s “day-fine” policy, where one executive once paid $103,000 for speeding, because his income exceeded $8 million a year. Critics call it class warfare. Supporters say it’s justice. Because a $200 fine to one man might mean dinner… to another, eviction. Equality doesn’t mean same rules — it means same consequences.
