sure, you’re *technically* right. the same way i’ve gotten out of two “speeding” tickets on the *technicality* that the margin of error of both my speedometer and the cop’s radar (not to mention the combination of the two, which is not only a great album but also a statistically significant factor when we’re talking

“Upon further review, they did only estimate the driver’s speed and they did not record or measure it on a radar and laser as they indicated on the ticket,” Sturgeon County spokesperson Gwen Wolansky said.

There’s not much to debate with someone who thinks driving 1 mph over the speed limit is speeding. Seen too many of these clowns who think its their job to police everybody else, inducing loads of road rage and clogging the roads up by squatting in the left lane (or any lane for that matter). Emergency services and

I love how you absolutely REFUSE to understand what people are saying, and just keep repeating yourself over and over. You can’t just IGNORE margin of error. Margin of error is EVERYTHING when we are talking about 1 KPH.

US law requires your speedometer to be accurate to within 5 MPH at 50 MPH. Go ahead and justify

Exactly why it’s a problem that the police, through inconsistent enforcement and lack of compliance on their own accounts, have facilitated the creation of a system of arbitrarily low speed limits in which something like 80% of all drivers are exceeding them. Of course they could raise the limits to reasonable speeds

“More important” HA. Mr. Brainwashed, never question the system, even when it clearly isn’t working as intended. You’re wrong. Most people actually simply travel at a speed they feel comfortable at without looking down very much. The posted limit has very little actual effect on average speed. Hence why rules like the

You rat kids out to Code Enforcement for selling lemonaide without a permit, don’t you?

Speed laws are stupid. I don’t mean that they’re unnecessary, but that they lack intelligence and they’re often set at speeds that are designed more for generating revenue than ensuring safety. If speed laws are REALLY “the fastest safe traveling speed under ideal conditions”, then simply going the speed limit should

While this may true, let’s not pretend the law itself is altruistic. After all, if history has taught me one thing, it’s that the law is often wrong (hi, slavery and voting rights). Most speed limits are set at laughably low levels for today’s standards and their enforcement are often used as a means to supplement

A limit doesn’t mean much when they regularly ignore scientific investigation and intentionally under post the limit in an effort to generate revenue.

Everyone who didn’t try to intervene should be fired too. Why did they let this happen? Like that security guy talking on his phone - what about doing your job? You’re witnessing a nurse on the hospital you work for getting assaulted!

Once Payne and his superior who pushed him are fired and unable to find another job, then I’ll believe in that “goodness of society”.

Unions have had their day. Back when there were little to no labor laws, unions had a place. Nowadays, all unions do is ensure overpaying people with limited skills.

Unions are a”corporate boogeyman” because their main purpose is to protect the jobs of people who should be fired. I don’t think any company ever wanted to deal with them.

Or take medical advice from veterinarians and not randos on the Internet

Or didn’t really endanger many, if any at all, because, surprise, there’s a difference between posted speed limits and what can safely be driven given environmental factors, vehicle equipment, and driving ability. I’m going to venture that all of his trip was within the margins of that second category. Illegal does

*eyeroll*

I’ve learned that professionalism, training, honesty, and taking responsibility for decisions are wise in life.

Pretty much everyone in law enforcement has welcomed us for having approached the entire endeavor safely.

 There’s both sorry ass bosses and sorry ass employees out there, and on the other hand, the boss shouldn’t have to pay the employee that didn’t get laid over the weekend so he didn’t do a damn thing all week knowing the union will protect him.
