Page 148 of the Sentencing Guidelines. . .

 

"3. The aim is for the fine to have an equal impact on offenders with different financial circumstances; it

should be a hardship but should not force the offender below a reasonable ‘subsistence’ level

 

Selective quoting, from that same document

 

1. The amount of a fine must reflect the seriousness of the offence.1

 

2. The court must also take into account the financial circumstances of the offender; this applies

whether it has the effect of increasing or reducing the fine.2 Normally a fine should be of an amount that is capable of being paid within 12 months.

 

Continuing with the footballer analogy they could pay the maximum tariff in 12 minutes so that's not means tested

It was about 14 years ago, no insurance, not really my fault, a clerical error, got fined £100.

I did say driving driving and notice you were a tad evasive there, what was the charge?

 

Last month an acquaintance with a thriving business pleaded poverty on a DD charge and got off with a fine in low hundreds, while driving his new range rover. No evidence required.
