I don’t believe cities are incentivized to enforce traffic laws to make cities safer.
The only incentive is to make them money. Every infraction I’ve seen for myself or anyone i know was waved away for more money.
Just use exponential, income based fines.
Something like: 5% of your monthly salary or 0.05% of your networth, whichever is higher, adjusted by how much you were speeding of course.
Then double the fine for each infraction within one year after the first.
I’ve always wondered why they don’t put speed limiting devices on cars already. I know it’s a loss of freedom or whatever, but logically if speeding is unsafe shouldn’t we try to make people stop? Not by punishing offenders, but by making it impossible to screw up in the first place.

They used to be required, but the car industry knew that it pointed to the driver being responsible for collisions, so they lobbied to have the requirement dropped.
