Bank Robbery?

If a person robs a bank and is on $50,000.00 bail, why would the person that just drove the car the robber ran away in have bail of $100,000.00?
Shouldnt the robber have more bail for actuall doing the crime?

Answers:
The driver may have a more extensive criminal background or a history of jumping bail making him a bigger flight risk.
Perhaps the driver had a worse criminal record and was considered more likely to try and abscond.
It may be because he has more money and can afford a higher bail.
Or they think he's a bigger creep for lying about his involvement.
most likely the driver got charged with more offenses than the actuall robber and is likely to have previous charges or be considered a flight risk to justify the higher bond amount.
example robber get charged with armed robbery
driver get accesory to armed robbery, felony fleeing and evading, speeding, careless and imprudent driving ect, ect
