Yeah those soccer moms getting caught in a speed trap are real criminals
No, it's often because a cop had a quota to meet. A common thing here is to ride 6" from someone's bumper, usually with hi-beams on. If they go a little faster, pull them over. (Every time I see that, I hope they do it to a guy in an old beater Suburban, and he STANDS on his brakes!)
Traffic violations should be based on income. The deterant effect is then equally applied to all.
What about trust fund folks like me that didn't 'officially' have any income?
The answer is DON'T SPEED!
Driver apos s license suspensions push poor deeper into poverty report says - LA Times
I am really becoming a police hater. The functions of the police have been reduced to killing minorities, stealing working class people's money and protection of "property". I'm so "glad" we live in a society where I can walk the streets in constant fear of our so called protectors.
What is the nature of this fear?

Traffic violations are a cause of terrible injustice in this country. A $300 ticket to a 23 year old raising a kid might be the difference between getting groceries and paying for electricity; but To a wealthy person it's barely even a deterrant. They should change it to reflect income somehow.
That doesn't address my point. And most people who get tickets are generally doing their best to follow the law btw.Easy solution, if you can't pay the ticket don't get one, it's not that hard just obey the traffic laws.Traffic violations are a cause of terrible injustice in this country.

How is it an injustice to fine someone for violating a law they knew they shouldn't violate. Part of my job involves writing citations for those parking in the Fire Lanes in addition to other things. Wrote 4 today. Each time, the person in the care said they knew they shouldn't have done it but that they couldn't afford the $100 fine that came with it. They were quick to learn that if they don't want another $100 fine, don't park there again. My writing of those citations isn't based on income nor should it be. It's based on whether or not the person did it. PERIOD.Traffic violations are a cause of terrible injustice in this country.

Ah here we have the type of conservative I was used to during the Bush administration. "If you don't have anything to hide" right? Nvm that the law completely fucks people.Traffic violations are a cause of terrible injustice in this country.

Here's a solution. Don't speed and there is no ticket.
What about all the equality talk you lefties mention?

If someone gets a ticket for speeding, the law didn't do that to them. They did. The law doesn't come into play until the person violates the law. I don't worry about stupid laws on the books because unless I break them, they don't matter. If I do, I'm then stupid one, not the law.
OK, we just hang your types.
I love solving problems
