Could this work, like if you are 50% over the allowable limit, hit them with a 50k fine and if they are 100% over, hit them with 100k
Just throwing an option against the wall so I don't want to hear how moronic I am.

It's probably because of maximum penalties that are already prescribed by law/regulation. In NY, for example, a recent law was passed by the legislature to up the maximum penalties for certain offenses from $5,000 per incident to $20,000 per incident.
