MFP Commentary:
Most of this story is pure bull shite, and I wish I had the weeks worth of time that it would take to properly research and respond to this nonsense.
I don’t know where to start….
How about lack of sleep that is epidemic on the roads to work, and in the workplace? It is demonstrably more of a safety issue if you care to go down that rabbit hole.
How about actually punishing crimes? i.e. when someone violates the rights of another. (Most Americans don’t even understand the concept of rights IMHO or we would not even have “drivers licenses” We the sovereigns need permission to travel? Give me a break.)
Or are we going to live in a nation of thought crimes and permissions (like the current MO pot “legalization”)?
A nation of where it is against the law to have an “open container” (unless your vehicle is so many feet long – hence a motor home), but an open Pepsi is somehow OK.
A nation where while driving, using the GPS on your smart phone is legal, but a joint that you smoked yesterday is not?
None of this has to do with actual harm to people. Most of it is crystal ball, 1984, thought crime.
*** They had it much better figured out 50 years ago, where you got a ticket for “reckless driving”, regardless if you were doing so because you don’t get enough sleep, alcohol, a diabetic low on blood sugar, THC, playing with the car radio, or a prescription drug prescribed by your doctor. The reason why doesn’t matter!! What matters is whether or not someone actually violated the rights or endangered the rights of another….. or not.
Come on sheep, lay off the fluoridated water, and think before you follow these media-manipulators/opportunists over the cliff like a lemming.
