$4700 spent to write 42 seatbelt tickets? Sounds like wise use of tax dollars to me! And keep in mind, the grant only "helped" pay for the blitz, so it...
Thats a favorite of American drivers, Paul. When the two brain cells you have to rub together cannot figure out why one is stopped, just lay on the horn....

I've just received a reply from the school principal. For those new to the list or for anyone who needs a memory refresher, it was this entry in my local High...
Safety lesson beats seatbelt fine Dozens of drivers caught not wearing a seatbelt opted to have a safety lesson from police rather than a fine. In the two-hour...
Okay so here is the situation...At 7:00 in the morning I got into a friends car (91' Corolla) it had a 2 part seat belt system...This was not my car...and just...

... If I'd had this option during Norfolk's "Seat belt enforcement month" last year I'd have taken it -- So that I could go along and heckle with some very...

His odds of winning are about 50/50, if the cop doesn't show up. In my experience, that has happened about half of the time. In some jurisdictions, you can...
Wow, that is really something. I had a similar experience in a small town called Upper Arlington, OH. Its a suburb of Columbus. Up to trial, I had pounded her...
