I heard or read somewhere (I can’t give a source) that the average American breaks 12 laws a day. I know I violate traffic laws every day, including speeding, failure to signal, not always turning into the right lane, etc.
Where I live, we had a traffic cop who would ticket anyone going even 1 mile over the speed limit. His attitude was the law’s the law.
Code enforcement and zoning laws are the worst. They can measure the height of your grass, and ticket you if it’s a tenth of an inch too high, They can force you to plant a lawn even if you don’t want to. The best solution is to live in an unincorporated area, but then you can be annexed and lose your freedom.
Wow. We haven’t mowed our lawn in about 8 months. It is a foot high. We live in a homeowner’s association. No one, absolutely no one has said a thing to us.
