    My wealthy ex’s family would just pay the tickets, so he never learned.

    I’d beg him not to go 40 in school zones.

      Could be that their wealth caused them not to care about fines, if they had to pay 5% of that wealth every time they would definity take it easy in school zones.

      Don’t you get deducted points for speeding? Like after a while wouldn’t he lose his license, regardless of how much he pays?

        Where I live you only get deducted points for some kinds of speeding. Speeding in a school zone or residential street? Lose points. Excessive speeding? Lose points. Going 120kph in a 110kph zone on the highway between cities? Smallish fine and be on your way.
