Probably more effective than incorporeal punishment - unless the intention is to scare the crap out of the offender.
Seriously though, those who support the use of corporal punishment ought to thereby be willing to support the idea that law enforcement officers can pull their pants down and spank them in public the next time they are caught speeding.
