The AA is calling for an overhaul of driving fines.
It says fines haven't been adjusted for inflation since 1999 and no longer represent a big enough deterrent.
AA road safety spokesperson Dylan Thomsen says doubling the fines would make a good starting point - with some specific offences incurring higher penalties.
"We need to look at some specific offences, the ones that show up in crashes most often. Drunk driving, drugged driving, seatbelts distractions like cell phones and speed. And we might actually need to lift those even further to really try and make people care more about sticking to the rules."
