maybe it's a sign that you need to spend your money on more peaceful things
guns are peacemakers

probably less than a ticket and points on your license
she could have taken the uber to a city with amtrak bus service or smth instead of the full 160 miles lol

Unless you're one of those poor people who can't afford the ticket and then get charged more money because you can't pay and then get your license revoked because you can't pay and then you still owe money because losing your license makes it even harder to get to work to make money to pay your ticket and if you do decide to drive anyway you risk ending up in jail lol

technically those that upset the flow of traffic are the ones most likely to cause accidents though. And that's more often slow or hesitant drivers on a highway

a speed ticket is based on objective criteria like well speed
it's their fault and they should be carpooling or taking the bus anyhow
If you own a car, you are privileged
i once got a speeding ticket too, for going 14 over :(
also once a cop stopped me for "speeding" when i was going 2 over the speed limit. he probably had some other reason to stop me or something idk
there's a margin of error associated with speedometers (!!)
he thought i was hispanic he was trying to deport me

because everyone lives somewhere with a reliable bus system or knows a "privileged" friend willing to drive them
also good sir ypr, there are many rural localities that have bus services here
you just have to walk a bit
they can take you to where you can get to the greyhound or amtrak station
maybe city planners should think of that when you have populations that can't drive for whatever reason
Last I heard in civics class, driving is a PRIVILEGE not a right

yeah not everywhere has an amtrak or a bus station anywhere near their residence or place of employment. The rural localities in norva are much different than those throughout the country since so much is connected

well thats why I'm in planning. But so much has been developed without those considerations and things that have already been developed tend to be shelved until the more wealthy want to update them. Unfortunately many towns and cities have very limited budgets and to them expanding public transit doesn't seem like a great idea because it's not very profitable and often needs to be subsidized if it won't be used as much by the middle or upper classes. So in the end the less fortunate get fucked

that's a convenient way to dismiss scores of people who need to drive to make it to their 2nd or 3rd job and they're just scraping by hoping their jalopy doesn't decide to die today when they can't afford any repairs for the next half year
Civics classes are bullshit clearly
oh i don't live near dc
lol are you kidding
how is that walmart they hope to attract going to get a labor pool without affordable transport or even customers
the trouble is shortsighted thinking and the bean counters don't realize the benefits do not exactly hit their balance sheets as a dedicated line item

Yeah that is the trouble and because of that the US has relatively terrible public transit depending on what part of the country you live in. Having a car is a necessity for many if they want to be able to work

I'm sure you're helping a lot from your house though felt
ive got a good idea for a community guys
(http://assets.inhabitat.com/files/epcot1.jpg)
Maybe we should consolidate cities eventually or just outright abandon them :/
This community is practically on its last legs because nova fucked us with the tolls

um orlando is pretty much epcot anyway so disney realized that funding it themselves was a dumb idea lol
yep nova helped elect a governor and legislature who ultimately made it prohibitively expensive to visit this side of the elizabeth
Consolidating cities would be great because it would mean less urban sprawl which would mean less roads and less reliance on automobiles. It is easier to plan a public transit system when things are all close together rather than spread out and you have to choose and pick which gets stops (surprise! Usually hot spots for middle and upper class residents)
We really need to raise taxes in general because the funding available for transportation is laughable across the board. And then the Republicans refuse to put any of that money into trains or buses and just goes to expanding highways out of the city and asdfghjkl
wait are you seriously advocating for the election of ken cuccinelli right now lmao

Yes. But those are often up to public referenda at least here in Virginia and from recent local history, may be stinkers
