Amen Superman - In Florida they go on revenue generating field trips here too. The other day I was on one of the bridges coming to work. They were pulling people over that were speeding (Which everybody seems to do on the bridges (11 miles long, this one)

A guy in a beat up old truck was hauling dead branches and yard material that was falling off his homemade trailer all the way across the bridge. I mean big branches and such! Anyway - vehicles were swerving all over to avoid this crap - some obviously speeding, many almost getting in an accident trying to avoid.

So, did the guy in the truck get pulled over - NO - even after a pice fell off his truck 10 feet from one of the troopers giving tickets - only those that were doing 68 in a 55. Why? the people headed to work are making money to pay their ticket. Who was more dangerous? Of course the guy with crap falling off his truck!
