- asdff 5y agoThey ticket everything in ohio. Drive too fast? Ticket. Drive too slow? Ticket. Lights not on after the legal definition of dusk? Ticket. Hanging out in the left lane? Ticket. Not using the blinker? Ticket. Leaving the blinker on? Also ticket. The sucky part is when you are a teenager they sometimes couple this with throwing all your belongings on the side of the road in search of the weed that you must have.
- FireBeyond 5y ago> Drive too slow? Ticket. At least when I grew up in Australia, part of the road laws was a statement, very close to this effect: "You are required to drive at the maximum speed that is 1) within the speed limit, 2) is appropriate for the conditions, and 3) within your ability to control the vehicle". And that was the rationale for ticketing 'too slow' drivers. Within those constraints, there was no reason for you to go more slowly, and posed unnecessary risk to those who were within those criteria.
