Parking Fine Insanity!

Baltimore's ballooning parking fines may be the highest in the country, and now the city is threatening to sue scofflaws for an average sum of $1,625 per violation. (Even, presumably, violators whose license plates were stolen by MVA employees!)
City spokesman: "we have a budget deficit."

Shouldn't the punishment (the fine) fit the crime? A $16 a month late charge is ridiculous. A monthly percentage rate would make much more sense.
