You bet, you should see the Judges that Mayor Daley 'appoints' to "his" Circuit Court.
And our current Secretary of State (who issues all DL's) was previously 'famous' for ... running a Tumbling Team.
Then there's the fact that every law written regrading driving and the roads is first vetted by MADD. If they don't like it, it gets nixed. And any pol or judge who crosses them (in their mind) is history.
Then there's the 'lawyers' (these shysters give real shysters a bad name) who live at the main Chicago Traffic Court hustling clients (think that's illegal), but that's another story.
