This situation would only occur if a husband was arrested after police came to a home where domestic abuse was happening, and there were no other males in the family who to 'take over' and issue orders. I've seen this kind of situation before--it's very corrosive and it keeps happening because of conditioning. I should imagine it takes a lot of therapy to get over the idea that you were born to be "less than."
People wonder why things like "honor killings" (which should be called DIShonor killings, IMO) can possibly happen in 'evolved' societies like USA, UK or Canada. It's because the culture is insular and the women are conditioned to limit their own freedom.
Since a woman who is wearing a burqua or a chaderi would not be out and about without her husband, and the husband controls the money, HE would a) talk to the ticketing policeman and b) pay the fine--not the woman. Then the woman would, if the man could not adjust, be stuck at home and the man would have to do ALL the shopping, most particularly the grocery lifting, hauling, etc.
