I doubt it, and… please no. Demerit points maybe. Fines disproportionately punish the less affluent and incentivise the wrong attitude to enforcement.

One problem I've observed with uncoordinated speeds on German Autobahns is drivers who seemingly switch to their left lane without noticing a faster vehicle approaching which then has to brake suddenly which in itself is a danger to everyone. Out of anything, I feel like autonomous vehicles with coordination will make lives less stressful.
Yes, you cannot hope to reach complete equality of the impact a fine has on the drivers, but you cannot do that with demerit points, either. A driver who needs his car to make a living will likely be affected stronger than a driver who has a decent alternative.
