Automation will drastically reduce police and city budgets
Fines, in my estimation, should go to central coffers -then redistributed to municipalities based on need.<p>Otherwise it has perverse incentives, or at least misincentivizes certain kinds of policing.  On the other hand, the state should not divert funds (you know as they are wont to do with lottery monies, etc which start out as being for education, or whatever, but then get put into a general fund and the gov goes about and spends it on their hi-viz, lo-impact projects or play other 3-card Monty games with revenue.
