It’s only % of salary (day fines) for more severe offenses, in this case for really speeding
…is far more just than here in the US where income is never considered.
So my statement is still accurate. I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make here. Perhaps you can explain?

Friend, I’m just trying to be helpful and note that it’s not all speeding tickets.
What’s up with people online thinking everything is an argument lol

The real problem is that people want to argue technicalities that deflect from the main point. For people who aren’t paying attention, they might come across this and think, “Oh, well I guess the US system isn’t so unjust after all.”
The Finnish system is probably inequitable, too! But it’s objectively not as inequitable as the US system, at least not where traffic fines are concerned. There’s nuance.

I was just noting that it’s not all (or most) traffic fines, since it’s a common misconception. That is all.
