Victimless "crime"



A Florida man (https://www.foxnews.com/us/ex-florida-mayor-crack-doctor-report) was arrested Sunday for allegedly fleeing from deputies in a Ferrari and authorities said he admitted to initially speeding, saying, “the car is a Ferrari and it goes fast,” reports said.
Authorities said they were alerted to the sports car driving recklessly and when deputies tried to pull him over, he sped up to 100 mph, ABC Action News reported. He allegedly turned off the car’s lights and continued on his way.

He allegedly admitted to speeding, but denied eluding authorities, NBC-2 reported. The female passenger allegedly told authorities that she told him to slow down after seeing the lights on the patrol car. She was not charged.
Molina faces the charges of fleeing and eluding law enforcement, Local 10 reported.

Just spoke with a coworker about this very story. He too (American) was befuddled at the Government's and Media's obsession with stupid speed laws. He admitted to doing the same as I do: We break 100mph every day, twice a day on the way to and from work. Make driving in the left lane without passing a $1000 ticket, make speeding over 20mph past the limit a $50 ticket, over 30mph? $100 ticket. over 50mph? $500 and we'd be a lot better off as a society. DEMAND better/wiser drivers. Focus 1/3rd the energy we spend debating 'gun control' onto 'Fixing the number one cause of traffic deaths (which number in the tens of thousands per year) - Human error' and we'd be better off as a society.


urgh!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
