Worried about court overcrowding? Why don't we first start by repealing about 50 million of the idiotic laws that are currently in the books? AND it would give legistlators something to do, rather than coming up with new ones.
Nope. Just e-mail the complaint to a NJ judge. He'll bend the law for you. You get off scot-free.
Well we all know that speeding tickets are not about safety at all but just another way for cities and towns to jack up revenue. The motorist is being played for a sucker with all these speed traps. These speeding tickets only hurt the working man. Those with connections get the tickets fixed. And those in with the police don't get tickets at all. Depending on what jurisdiction they are in, all they have to do is drop a name, flash a badge or sport a "I give to the Jaycees" bumper sticker and they are off the hook.
If this was about safety, cops wouldn't be hiding their patrol cars in shrubbery or posing as surveyors with their radar guns, they'd be out patrolling the roads pulling over the jerks that tailgate, weave in and out of traffic and who commit other acts of aggression and road rage.
Nothing against the cops here as they are just doing what they are being ordered to do - fill the town coffers with lots of speeding fines.
The program is only available for minor infractions such as speeding, running a stop sign or missing a tail light. The last time I got rear-ended, the left taillight was the only undamaged part of the back of my van.
I don't miss the taillight, but I sure do miss the van.
