You run a farm in northern Vermont that raises turkeys. You can get a decent price for your birds by selling them locally but a much better price and can sell many more if you take them to the folk in Boston. There are no trucks to speak of

I'm going to attempt to rationalize why cyclists don't obey traffic laws in cities. The short answer is that bicycle riding in cities sucks. It's loud, slippery, uneven, blocked, takes a lot of physical effort, is full of unp

Many highway chases are called off because chasing the most dangerous people puts more people in danger than it's worth. It's an unfortunate reality but you can't discourage the extremely reckless by punishing the mildly.

That is an unsafe assumption and one of the first lessons of driving school. That you can never predict what people will do and to always be aware.

Some people are reckless, ticketing those of us that will stop when a police officer puts his arm out isn't going to stop the reckless.

Every OTHER form of transportation... Certainly does not stop at every red light. Specifically pedestrians. Bikes are more maneuverable and faster than pedestrians while decreasing safety only by the slightest margin if even any. I honest

I never really understood the value in ticketing cyclists, or jay walkers for that matter in NYC. Very few people are getting hurt, even in the densest metropolitan area in the country so why are we so worried about it? Because cyclists can

There are more people than ever in Brooklyn and they are more affluent demanding cabs around an otherwise poorly navigable borough. Some days, weekends and inclement weather, they can't keep up with demand and it takes forever to get a
