Mixed messages sent to drivers on speeding

Regarding increasing insurance rates based on speeding tickets, the idea that the law can change to retroactively penalize is simply wrong.

A simple doubling of the fine for each and every subsequent offence will provide the necessary revenue and be a  deterrent to all but the very affluent.

This target group also needs to be rewarded for good behaviour by reducing the fines for time elapsed. As far as speeding goes, they need to stop sending mixed messages.
