But like you said, for things like a simple "fine" or "penalty" which is a revenue generator and not actually a deficit run by someone at some point should not be so heavily enforced. Imagine losing a lucrative contract because on the way to the meeting or jobsite you got pulled over for no valid registration and the cop decided to be a dick about it...
