It's not rocket science that the effectivness of any penalty is directly related to the amount of pain it causes to the person choosing to commit the offense. A simple review could answer the question of the effectiveness of changing the enforcement, as a deterrent, from a spot or previous spot enforcement to the current subsequent spot enforcement.
Has the number of such penalties increased, or decreased?
There's no doubt in my mind that the frequency of this garbage would drop substantially if the enforcement spot was reversed.
