I am surprised at the amount of FReepers who think this is okay. I thought this site was about limited government but we now let the government force us to wear seatbelts, tell us what we can and cannot do with our property, fine us for turning on lights during turtle nesting season (coastal issue), tell private businesses they can't allow smoking, etc.

We even have an Octoberfest is my town where the government closes off the downtown area to vehicles so they can set up beer vendors tents. For a $10 "TAX", you are allowed to enter and drink as much beer as you want. No need to worry about getting caught leaving drunk because the entire police force is there for crowd control.

I have to laugh, at one time it was illegal to drive without shoes but it was legal to have an open container in your vehicle. Welcome to the nanny state.

Me too. It is astounding.
