CA is the only place I’ve driven where they tell you what the fine is right there on the sign.

Scfflaw! Next thing you know you’ll be ripping tags of pillows or using a toilet that uses too much water or buying a black market 100 watt incandescent bulb of lighting a fire in your now banned wood burner...it’s a slippery slope.

I got a speeding ticket yesterday. Megadeth doesn’t go well with 25 MPH streets.

just don’t speed

considering that your average trips are less than a half hour, and the most you can increase you speed by is 10-20 miles over the limit, for SHORT periods of time, the most you will save driving like crazy is 5 minutes MAYBE off a half hour, less for smaller trips

Is a $400 ticket and possible accident worth those few extra minutes?

I admit it, I drove in the car pool lane as a single driver.

I assume it was 101 south. I have driven that route a time or two myself, from Santa Rosa, to 37, to Vallejo, to I-80, to Fairfield. I do not hardly ever remember seeing a CHP vehicle, but I guess they are out there.

I once veered into the HOV lane in Franklin, TN to avoid a guy in the middle left lane that was slamming on his brakes to shift two lanes right (guess he just realized it was his exit - idiot on the phone).

I got pulled over and ticketed. The fine was $160. I went to court. Judge dismissed it and actually admonished the officer for not listening to my story and that I avoid a wreck.

It’s great living in the sane, real world.

I do not feel bad or sympathize with him. If EVERYBODY did what he did, he would have been stopped dead in the car-pool lane. The ONLY reason it moved him quickly was that others were following the law, while he was not.

I WOULD sympathize if the “law-breaking” was victimless. In this case, it is not really. It is like driving on the shoulder, which also is no problem until everybody does it and then an emergency vehicle needs the shoulder, or someone is parked on the shoulder and you run into them.

Well! That’ll teach you to endanger others.

I once peed in a pool while swimming.

It's a slippery slope from one crime to the next.

Baaaaaa!

Until you elect a constitutional sheriff to protect you from the mercenary jackboot thugs hired by the leftists, expect to be sheared.

Motorcycles can legally use the HOV lane with only the operator on board.

You knowingly decided to drive in the HOV lane. That’s not a mistake.
