Speed tickets won't turn gas spillers into ecomodders, it wil just make them watch their speed more closely. Until they know where all the cameras are of course, then it degenerates to brake hard & floor it again.

What I meant to say is that it has some influence on their behaviour where other measures seem to have no effect at all.

Then, some peaople don't even seen to care about the tickets. Maybe they do buy into the greatest charity thing and just mean to do good.
If only a fixed and substantial percentage of gas tax and traffic rules infringement income were reserved for developing green energy... the world would be a better place for man's vices

For education go to people unlike yourself.
