And generally not the selfish tossers who are committing the offences, either. |  |

The same protocol should be applied to speeding motorists as to drink-drivers.

What percentage of the Fixed Penalty Notices are actually going to be paid? It's going to clog up the system.
There must be a fair few that could be proved to be unlawful and will get dragged through the courts. Others will see that as an opportunity to get out of paying. |  | | |

Do they even pay the fixed penalty. You can be taken to court if you don’t pay but has anyone actually heard, or read, about anyone ending up in court for non payment.
Magistrates would of course be allowed to take your financial position into account and reduce the fine.
To best way is for magistrates to give a day by which the fine must be paid or face an alternative of a set number of days imprisonment. Set up boot camps and let the army run them. |  |

The best way would be for fines to be deductible from earnings/benefits/bank accounts and for the same processes as the Inland Revenue use to be involved. |  |

They should set up a system similar to the speed awareness courses. If you don't pay your FPN and it goes to court, you get the option of paying the larger fine or doing some serious community service.
Team them up with the hospices and put them to work. Get them to help the thousands who will be long covid sufferers as carers. We're going to need so many extra carers after this anyway so those that have directly influenced the spread can do something to put it right.
Juts simple things like litter collecting will help. The hedges and ditches around our way have 12 months worth of detritus. | | | |

Maybe these fines could go directly to NHS workers as a sort of bonus. |  |

Very much depends whether they are contested I guess. The majority of £10k fines have been significantly reduced once they get to court on account of them being ruled to be disproportionate.
The other issue is the court system is currently somewhat overrun so people contesting them on the grounds that the fine was wrongly issued, they won't be having their day in court for some time.
Meanwhile, I read the number of fines for employers, from over 9000 complaints made about unsafe work places, are precisely nil.
But hey, Priti looks good, so that's all good for the baying mob... |  |

Bring back National Service....but as a personal carer.
Two years compulsory personal carer work at the age of eighteen. If you go into higher education, you can opt to do four years compulsory personal carer work in return for which you get half your student debt removed.
If you go backpacking for a year, your national service is doubled. | |

You just want to get sponged down by a lithe eighteen-year-old girl. Admit it.

I doubt there'll be anything left once they've absorbed the cost of the generous increase in carers' allowance announced today, of 1 pence per hour. |  |

We are all selfish tossers then because there isnt anyone on this forum who can drive who hasn't broken the speed limit. I wonder how many of us on here who like a little tipple have broken the drink driving laws the next day without knowing it. I reckon the answer is nearly all of us sometime in our life.
