You're can't be serious.  You can penalise someone as much as you like
for being a bad driver, but it won't magically make them a good
driver.  Education is about explaining why some driving habits are
dangerous, i.e. making people *want* to drive well, and providing the
information and experience to enable them to do so.  Financial
penalties do not achieve this.
