Efforts to enforce the rules are a waste of time, since it will
not stem the tide of irresponsible behavior. Is that about right?


No. It is the job of the duly appointed Officer (Sheriff, constable,
Highway Patrolman, Trooper) to enforce the laws, not me.



No, but it is your responsibility as a citizen to see that those laws are
enforced. That is, of course, assuming you want the laws to work in your favor;
i.e, the prosecution of those that violate your rights, safety, property, etc.


There would be no reason for me to go chasing after a speeder
and pull along side of him and start to berate him on how
he was speeding. It would just **** him off and maybe create
an even worse situation, road rage.



The least you can do is set an example (and enjoy the ride a little more) by
leaving a few minutes early and driving a little below the speed limit. It may
not make a noticable difference, but it's something, and it's certainly more
than your 'do-nothing' attitude. Apathy is not a solution. If you are not part
of the solution.....
