    Mrs. Walleye had to replace hers. Since she had a note from a po leeceman, she got it for free, otherwise they charge to replace them.

    The vast majority of impaired drivers drive just fine, you should know that. The reasonable suspicion occurs when they get pulled over for a courtesy advisement of a blown tail/headlight.

    p.s. sorry to have ruffled your feathers.
    p.s.s. I loathe drunk drivers and advocate fishing for them, but don't deny that it occurs.

    Back in the 50s I was driving River Road (Rt. 32) in the vicinity of Yardley Pa. I was stopped by an officer Titus (who I believe eventually became chief of police there). The paint on my registration plate was deteriorating and he stated it was the reason he stopped me. He strongly advised me to get some paint of the appropriate color and restore it. Yes Sir. Thank you, Sir I'm still LOL on that one.
    There are two kinds of guns. Those I have acquired, and those I hope to.

    Yeah, fuck drunk drivers. Every last one of them. Zero fucks given if they get pulled over.

    Drunk driving is treated like a joke in this country anyway. You can kill someone and not even go to jail for any significant period of time. Fucking pathetic.

    Here in Lancaster, you can run down a guy just going to work on his scooter, flee the scene, claim that you thought you get a telephone pole and only get charged with an M1 and a summary offense, neither of which are hit and run. Our "justice" system is fucking pathetic.

    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    Well, don't be a special needs Amish guy riding a scooter if you do. Cause apparently no one cares if they get run down. I'm watching her case, and I'm betting she's going to plead to the summary offense, and pay a fine.
