RE: Does The AFL Tribunal's Schedule of Fines Need Reviewing?

in #afl7 years ago

yeah, on the surface that is ridiculous, but it is indicative of the rest of life.

If i run a red light I get a $396 fine.

If James Packer runs a red light, he also gets a $396 fine.

Sort:  

i guess that's why we have a demerit points system for drivers too. AFL turfed a similar system a while ago, trying to simplify the process.

This is true, but the AFL take great pride in running a very controlled environment.

And I also suspect lawmakers would love to be able to issue fines on a sliding scale based on income.
