I have discovered an onimous trend in traffic that should have every driver in this land greatly concerned. I was ticketed in a hispanic neighborhood I had to drive through to work. I always had to weave around the locals obstructing traffic in the left lane, amongst other moving violations. They were never stopped unless they were tearing aroung at super high speeds directly endangering people. Running an errand yesterday at lunch, I saw three major traffic light/lane violations by (guess whom) that would have resulted in serious wrecks had another vehicle present. Since these tickets are all about revenue anway, cops only stop those of us who are obvoulsly citizens who will pay up, not illegals that will disappear. It seems like these folks are driving like they know that now, too.

Ahh, we no need no steeeekeeeen seat belts, we no need no steeenkeeen red lights or stop signs, we no need no steeekeeenspeed limits, we no need no steeeekeeeen lines on the roads, we no need no steeekeeeen turn lanes or turn signals, but mooooosly we no need no steeeeekeeeen enforcment.

Seat belts are a pain in the butt, so is using a turn signal, so is stopping at a red light when there isn't a car for miles around.

I offer that people would be far more accepting of these type laws,because they respect the rule of law, if they were put into play and enforced in a better manner.

It's not the lack of ability to pay, it's that citing them would force the issue of lack of drivers licenses, lack of insurance, immigration status, etc. They choose to ignore the traffic violations so they don't open the immigration can of worms.
