California's traffic fines don't fit the crime

Gov. Jerry Brown and state Sen. Bob Hertzberg (D-Van Nuys) have proposed ways to help people who have lost their license due to an inability to pay fines. That’s OK, but how about legislators look at undoing the fee structure that resulted in this mess? I'd love to see a bill reducing the fees added to tickets.
