I have no problem with this. It's a fine, not jail time. Appropriately and leniently penalized.
Soliciting for prostitution is also a crime in many jurisdictions.
Picture how it happened. This happened at 1 am. In a small town in the north of Scotland. Likely no people around. A young woman is walking on the sidewalk when a car with three men pull alongside her and the driver keeps asking "How much?" In a strange (English) accent, indicating not local guys. Repeatedly, while the car was following her. Damn right that is threatening in context.
