Lane hogger fined and endorsed.

[Kimosabe]

I think that rather than resort to them and us, if lane hogging is to be routinely enforced, it must be encouraged across the board. That's fair but as usual, I seem to find myself considering better education with the aim of giving a better perspective, in preference to taking a stick mentality to anyone who doesn't use all available lanes when possible.

It's fairly obvious from the very subject of this thread, that 99.999% of the public regard a fixed penalty as an on-the-spot fine.

I have never heard anyone refer to a fixed penalty for a motoring offence as an 'on-the-spot-fine'.
I'm surprised that someone as pedantic as you are regarding spelling and grammar on an internet forum would use such a term.
