Dear Readers,
Virginia libertarian automotive journalist & author Eric Peters wrote this week
about the utter absurdity of our traffic laws, and the perverse incentives they
are creating:
--------
"There is certainly such a thing as reckless driving. Examples include
driving on the curb with your toes while both hands are occupied with liter
bottles of Jack Daniels. It is also arguably the lost-in-the-fog of Alzheimers
senile citizen who serially wanders lazily over the double yellow and back -
but whom cops will almost never charge with reckless anything, or even pull
them over for that matter.
But it is not driving faster than 20 MPH over a preposterously under-posted
speed limit or even doing 93 MPH. Cops do this all the time I have
personally paced them doing it and theyre neither charged with reckless
driving nor ashamed to do it."
