In Denmark if you are charged with hazardous driving the police can confiscate your car. A Norwegian who had bought a Lamborghini in Germany took the trip through Denmark back home and hit 228 km/t km/h. He lost the car and will never get it back.
Sure, and while I think that’s a good idea, it’s not really the same thing. Even though a rich person is more likely to drive a more expensive vehicle, you can have wealthy people driving sensible cars (especially the really wealthy) and lower income idiots, I mean people, having saved up and taken out ridiculous loans to get their expensive dream car that they can’t afford. Confiscating those two vehicles would be the complete opposite of equality in terms of financial pain.
