HUGE California Traffic Tickets FinesEffective 01/06/2011

Please be extremely careful in your driving and car registration& insurance matters. State of California is broke and they are tryinghard to squeeze all of us hard to collect money.

Effective immediately, if you do not stop at the red light, be ready to pay$436 in fines or if you pass a school bus with flashing red signals, you willbe charged $616. The state of California is going for blood, so be extracareful in driving, You cannot afford messing with them. I have beenhearing that Highway Patrols are under pressure to issue a lot more ticketsthan last year with at least 30% increase in fines over 2009, so beware ofradar guns, highway and traffic cameras installed everywhere and the tougherenforcement of parking rules.

Just for your info, the next time you park in the handicappedzone, even for a minute, you will be looking at almost $ 1000 in parkingtickets , so it'd better be worth it.

California needs money, so pay closeattention to the rules of the road!

"VC22349 $214 Unsafe speed, 1 to 15miles over the limit."

There is absolutely no way they can enforce 1 mile over the speed limit, but I suppose they throw that in to have a range.

"VC27400 $178 Headsets or Earplugs coveringboth ears. "

Oh man, I see people doing this a million times a day here in SF. Either talking on the phone or listening to music. Either way, they are morons.

That's totally bogus. What about hearing impaired/deaf people? :lol:

How else are they going to pay for the prisons and social welfare systems?

On the flip side, it would appear by your posting this and recommending people pay close attention to the law, that you feel this may be a successful system.

True. Also, about social welfare systems (although a broad term), it's hopefully going to be required for welfare recipients to submit drug tests.

Basically, these laws should be followed and are pretty straight forward. Stop fully at stop signs, don't run red lights, and don't pass school buses that are stopped. Not that difficult.

You are required to keep your eyes off the road, as to not occupy the organ you use to supplement the lack of hearing. Please watch for perceptual cues indicating that there might be sound you are missing out on.
