That's not silly at all. In fact, the penalties are too soft. I've seen
your once fine nation go to the dogs because of scoff-laws carrying ice
cream in their pockets without a thought for anyone else. Don't these
people have any consideration of the physical risks to themselves and
others, let alone the long term psychological damage and/or domestic
breakdown they invite. What about the children?

I'd throw away the goddam key.
