Tickets like this should carry a monetary fine (like it already does) and it should be reflected in points against your license. If you can't be personally responsible enough to follow the laws associated with driving, you shouldn't have the privilege. If someone is bold enough to blatantly ignore licensing laws, what other road laws are they breaking that aren't as obvious.

Plus, handling it this way still gives the offending party several opportunities to correct the deficiency before facing long term consequences.
