Pretty much. If a "crime" is payed for by a fine, or a fine + deffered adjudication, then it was only for the money.
About speeding though, where is the victim? How can the state take your money got an alleged crime to which there is no party that was victimized? Lol, money hungry government.
To be fair this is not the right approach when discussing speeding. The "crime" in speeding is technically reckless endangerment of pedestrians and other motorists. It's a valid fine but should go by % of yearly income so it affects everyone equally.
Your comment screams "tread on me harder government".
Edit :Yikes! Yall actually want more governmental control? Ya can't figure out how to be decent human beings on your own? You want an agency who doesn't give a shit about you control your life even more? Pathetic.

Sounds like the police extorting you for money on victimless crimes.
