Snoped & found to be FALSE. Good!

YIPPEEEEE! First great news of the day!
We're going to be driving the length of the state's
coastline and I don't need nomo crap from our
fine men in blue. ... although, I've never had to pay
a ticket in my life - except a PA parking ticket, back
in the '70s.
I'm overdue![:D]0 -

Of course not..they are immune to our laws!!!0 -
I'm probably going to get skewered here, but I don't have a problem with any of that, except maybe the severity of the fines. 0 -
The supposed blocking an intersection fine of $485 is just about right. That violation really gets me PO'd. 0 -
the fear of the law is whats keeps one on the straight and narrow. the fear of loss for poor behaviour is what being lawful and orderly is all about. bravo to lawmakers. make it hurt.[^] 0
