But the real rationale is: let’s blame someone that’s easy to blame instead of figuring out who’s actually responsible. Germany has photo-radar, but can only issue a ticket to the driver. Possibly that’s related to some of their history, I’m not sure. Though they do issue voluntary “caution” money tickets to the owner at a discount to make it go away without identifying the driver.

I believe in the Netherlands they will send a ticket to the owner. The owner then has to pay the ticket or provide the info of the driver.
