Currently Listening To: Welcome Back by Mase Currently Thinking About: How much money I'm saving Currently I'd Rather Be: In possession of the TMNT Trilogy For some reason I'm really starting to get some serious road rage on the way to work. They just introduced some Civil Penalties in Virginia where residents of said state are issues extra fines for traffic violations. For example, 20 over the speed limit will get you a whopping $1,050 fine in addition to the normal fines. Yeah, I know what you're going to say. "Well, Cruzz, that IS excessive..." Yeah it is, but Route 66 is a four lane highway with a 55MPH speed limit. No one goes 65 let alone 55... well that is until this crazy law was put into place. Now there is like a wall of people driving 60 miles an hour when I'm trying to do 80 going to work! Yeah yeah, again, "Well, Cruzz, 80 IS speeding..." "So the hell what", I say. Let me worry about that. You worry about the fact that you can't follow one of the simple, easier to understand laws of the road: "Keep right. Pass left." If you are not passing the guy to your right.. then you, Sir (or Miss), should be on the right! Seems like an easy rule to me. That's actually enforced in Jersey (I've been pulled over for it once.) and you don't see any slow drivers in the left lane there. They know how to get places like it's not a Sunday. Virginia... ha! All this crap just because they need more money for their Transportation Department. So you're telling me they tax your car on an annual basis and control the only toll booths withing 20 miles of DC and they STILL have problems with their Transporation Budget? OK. OK. [Gets off his soap box] you may continue with your surfing the Internetz.... So question of the post: Do I really want to move to VA? posted by The Blogger @ 11:08 PM 0 comments |
