That’s the problem isn’t it? In this day and age, a simple traffic violation can run into several hundred dollars. Many people struggling from paycheck to paycheck can not come up with the money to pay some of these fines(revenue enhancement). If not paid it goes into a warrant and if stopped again more fines and jail is imposed and if jailed the bond can run into thousands of dollars and of course if they couldn’t afford the original fine they damn sure can’t afford bond which means they stay in jail. This doesn’t cost the state any money because they receive federal funds for every day the guy is incarcerated. This is where municipalities and county jails actually make their money. The whole system stinks.
