Some are, but they often have maximum caps.
So for a UK speeding fine he’d get a £1000, but if it’s wasn’t capped it would be somewhere in the region of 340 million.
Your Speeding Offence Details
Speed Limit: 30 mph
Recorded Speed: 35 mph
Excess Speed: 5 mph
Offence Band: A
Road Type: Standard Road
What This Means For You
Your offence falls into Band A, which carries a fine of 50% of your weekly income. Based on your weekly income of £640,000,000, your calculated fine is £320,000,000. This has been capped at the maximum of £1000 for standard road offences.

Why would any such fines be capped, unless the entire point is to effectively legalise crime for the ultra rich?
