- It isn't the price of the ticket this gets me going. I consider
- the whole idea of speeding tickets as revenue enhancement at the
- cost of the average joe citizen. The things that really kills me
- is that the price of the ticket is usually the least of my worries.
- I worry about how many YEARS I will pay HUNDREDS of dollars to the
- insurance company all because some town/state needed some money so
- they sent the tax troopers, exceuse me .. police, out to raise some
- money.
