BMW: How much did your last traffic ticket cost you?

How much did your last traffic ticket cost you?
If you get fined for a traffic violation, what does it cost? Obviously
there's the fine itself. If you had to leave work to go to court, add the
price of your lost time and wages. Don't forget to include your increased
insurance premiums, which will probably add up, over several years, to much
more than the fine itself. Do you know the total cost yet?
No. The hidden cost, which most Americans have never even thought of when
dealing with traffic tickets, is you are losing your freedom. For years, the
government has been telling the public that driving is a priviledge, not a
right - and now most people believe that. Is it true, though?
When America was founded, our forefathers assumed the right to freely travel
the public roads without question in the peaceful conduct of their own
private affairs was such a fundamentally recognized right that they didn't
need to explicitly list it in the Constitution. That right, however, is
precisely what has been taken away: You must now first get permission from
the government before you venture out in public.
Do you really think it's proper that such a fundamental part of our freedom
has been taken away? Is that something you want to give up without a fight?
'Common wisdom' tells us that 'you can't fight City Hall' - the government is
out of control. That attitude is most of the problem: The only way it can
happen is if we let it - by not banding together into a unified voice to put
our public servants into their place.
YOU can make a difference. Help us in the fight to protect our liberty by
going to http://StopHighwayRobbery.com to join the battle, or to at least
learn more about the issues involved. This domestic threat to our freedom is
as dangerous, if not more so, than any external ones we have ever experienced
in the past.
http://StopHighwayRobbery.com -- it's your freedom at stake.

He is right you know. It is your constitutional right to be able to travel
freely. Driving a car however, is NOT a constitutional right. There are
Busses and side walks everywhere. Or you can ride a bicycle.
Speeding, and running red lights is a compromise of the public's safety. You
may have the right to travel freely, but you DO NOT have the right to kill
others in the process.

You
They already require you to register off-road vehicles (trail bikes, ATVs,
etc.) in most states. Who is to say that the government will not require
you to register and license your bicycle next? Then why not charge a fee to
use the sidewalk?

Re: How much did your last traffic ticket cost you?
Most cities have a system in place for registering your bicycle. Its
actually a good idea. If it gets stolen, then the Police have a number that
can be tracked back to you, so you get it back.
As for off road vehicles. Can you register ANYTHING in any condition? or are
there guidelines that it has to conform to? Noise level, Spark arrester,
brakes, etc... If that's the case, then its a CYA for the government. Its
not to smart to let someone motor around in the forest when they are
spouting sparks and flames. AND the registration is also a tracking number
in case its stolen.
The money from Off road registration also goes toward maintaining the
wilderness that is often destroyed from off roading.
