Best Answer

There are a number of punishments that can be given to a person caught speeding depending on the amount of speed in excess of the speed limit. Occasionally one will get away with a warning, but the majority of the time one is issued a speeding ticket at a fee that is related to how much over the speed limit the driver was going.

Which theory or combination of theories driving punishment do you personally feel is the best approach to use to deal with crime and why?

Punishment may serve to prevent a person from wanting to commit crimes in the future (deterrence) or they may serve to keep a person from being able to commit a future crime (incapacitate). However, one factor has been found to have a major influence on reducing future crime, and that is the CERTAINTY of punishment. The severity of punishment has some degree of effect, but when a person is CERTAIN that they WILL be caught, and they WILL be punished, crime decreases.
