It's all designed to nickel and dime you to death. If people actually added up all the day to day little taxes that go by unnoticed (or were forced to pay them twice a year like property taxes), they would be ****ting bricks

It might nickel and dime bad drivers, but most of us on this board are carfree cyclists. We like to see redlight runners and speeders get "nicked". Actually, I'd like to see them go to jail. It makes the roads safer for those of us who actually ride bicycles. Tolls and high traffic fines are the way to go.
