    Unless there’s some state level tax implications or a car that’s sensitive to rust in the desert that makes the car more or less valuable. I don’t see why the national average can’t be used?

    There’s an argument to say a state with a lower average income should have lower fines, but really then might as well have fines based on income / networth

      I guess it depends on how heavily it would be weighted in the ticket price. It would suck to get a ticket 3x more expensive, because Geo Metros became retro and your 2,500 shit box is worth 8,000 in your hipster market.
