Mark,
You have never come across to me as a "stupid" person, but your comment
certainly is stupid, or perhaps just economically biased and
insensitive. For many people, that $1050 for a first offense represents
a mortgage payment, health insurance premium or tuition bill at the
local community college. That $1050 is certainly not chump change for
the majority of Americans, and it's an onerous fee for forgetting to
signal a turn, and that may be the only mistake the driver made. Wait
until you're laid off, behind in your mortgage, have three kids and no
benefits and see if $1050 for a first offense for not signaling a turn
still seems fair to you.
Glen
