Why bother paying to drive legally?

The first one is ridiculous (caught driving after being disqualified for
25yrs(!) in 1990, after lots of previous bans, now banned again and a suspended sentence).He's obviously never going to stop. They should poke his eyes out or something.
The second one was just as a comparison. £100 find and suspended sentence for his 48th driving ban, yet a parked truck driver smoking alone in his cab gets fines totalling £260.
The pensioner story had a bit mroe detail here:

He is claimed to be the worst driver in the UK, yet all he nets is a £100 fine. Contrasting that with the 10 weeks in jail handed down to the
172mph driver and I can feel my anger rising.
Yebbut, he wasn't speeding, was he? So it was perfectly safe really...
To avoid driving bans?
It must have done no end of harm to the criminal world when the great rush to build motorways ended. It's a standing joke among those who work on the construction side that almost every bridge support in London had at least one body in it.
The bloke given a further driving ban was *already* banned...
