That isn't saying much. DUI below 0.08 is fairly harmless (crash rates don't start going up until you reach this point), yet how many fines are handed out for 0.05-0.08 infringements?
This is the problem across the board. Safety initiatives that make relatively safe activity (eg. exceeding speed limits by 5-10kph) the focus of 90-95% of enforcement activity. The focus is money, any safety improvement is purely incidental.
