  1. Great, next up how about Winnebooboo South of L.S.? Those whiny a-holes actually cause traffic accidents with people mashing their brakes at 2MPH over. Then on an alternate route to the lake, Peculiar off 71. 25MPH from Flying J to the Southbound ramp, absolutely ridiculous, and boy do they use it.

  3. Traffic violators kill 30,000 people a year...at least. Want to end that? Make traffic violations a FELONY.

  4. One tail light bulb out gets you a ticket.
    Improperly displayed front tag will get you a ticket all on a dangerous stretch of highway at night by them. Yep

  5. 6:25 I wonder how many of those 30K drivers or the other drivers that killed them were on their cell phones, drunk, or high??

  6. 11:47. Probably a bunch. That's why we need to make felons out of all violators. That will end it.
