So what you are saying, in essence, is that people are well aware

of
the rules. If they choose to break them they will do so at their

Yes

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.

Right, but it's the responsibility of every citizen to apply the
social equivalent of peer pressure to those who refuse to "tow the
line". This form of intimidation was widely employed in days long
gone, but has largely been abandoned in this age of indifference.


Dave, peer pressure might work among friends, but complete strangers
couldn't give a rats ass.



You'd be surprised at just how many people's habits are influenced by
the habits of other, complete strangers. Take a look at some of the
ridiculous fashion trends over the years, which have nonetheless
become popular, for the most obvious evidence of this peer influence.


People need to be made aware that "minor laws" are not always as
"minor" as they may think. Many people believed that crimes such as
cable TV theft of service were "minor" because what was being stolen
was not physically tangible. But when the lost revenue for the cable
companies were added to the picture, it's not such a "victimless"
crime.

Speeding, on the surface, does not seem to be a big deal either. But
consider what can happen when there is a traffic mishap. Speed lessens
reaction time, and increases the potential for damage and injury.

Most laws were not created to ruin people's fun. They were created to
protect society as a collective whole.


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.

Maybe so, but if people routinely did this, there would be a lot

less
people speeding, and the cops would have an easier job.


Sorry, I'll disagree. Each to their own opinion


Ok, you have the right to disagree. Since you do not agree with my
idea of active community involvement in awareness of laws, then what
would you suggest that we, as a society, do to stem the rising tide of
indifference to laws?


There's a difference with "community" involvement and State
involvement. While I might say something to someone in my
town, I will not bother with some guy on the highway, that
would never see me again in a million years.


Any cop will tell you not to confront a law breaker, call them and
let them know, that is their job. Throw a ball in front of a speeding
car, make him swerve, possibly crash, injure himself or someone
other, you will be the law breaker, not the speeder.

That would not be a good idea. But leaving a little "note" on the
offender's car every time it happens, including the forwarding of
their license number to the cops, might make someone think a little.


To get a ticket, an officer must see the offence happen,
just telling him that Jimmie was speeding won't do anything.
Maybe if we all lived in Mayberry RFD something might
happen, but not in this day & age.


Maybe that needs to change to some degree. You're right of course, and
that knowledge just enables lawbreakers. Perhaps if people could be
cited without a LEO physically witnessing the offense, the problem
would diminish.


Never happen, due process of the law. We are not deputized
by the local government to enforce the law. Also, same issue
as with enforcing FCC rules by local law, we would have to
go through many hour or training, do you have the time? I
don't raising two kids working 9+ hours a day.


Technology offers yet another solution. GPS technology and OBD-II
emission control systems can be integrated to the point where all
functions of the car can be monitored. If the car travels down a road
over the posted speed limit, it sends a little "On-Star" type message
to a LEO, and a ticket in then issued. This has the added benefit of
enabling the tracking of the car if it were to be stolen. This is
similar to the idea of mounting cameras to take pictures of people
running red lights.
People will scream "Big Brother". But maybe that's what it takes when
you can't trust people to behave on their own.


Already done, dismissed in the courts. A rental car agency
was doing that, issuing speeding tickets to thier customers,
the courts ordered them to stop.

As a parent, I have become very conscious of people speeding through
residential neighborhoods. I would hate to have my kid or an
neighbor's kid fall victim to someone who's ignoring a "nuisance" law.


Good Luck! I've gone to the city and county councils, tried
to get the street closed at one end, to prevent all the people
from speeding down my street to get over to their street
faster, but not a chance. Speed bumps? Yeah right! I
don't want to hear the sound of cars "jumping" the speed
bumps at all hours of the night & day. So the best they
can offer is "selective" enforcement, LOL!! Useless!


Hmm.... I'm not sure how I want to proceed here. On the one hand I can
lambast you for your duplicitous position with regard to "selective"
speeding (It's ok, just don't do it on my street).


Yeah you could, but then this thread will have gone from a
civil thread to an abusive thread. I am a little that way, as for
around town I don't really speed, out in the coutry side, on
the bike, yeah. But again about the worst that can happen there
is tha I kill myself. As for on the freeway, Bronco doesn't go
over 70MPH, so don't speed there. My other cars on the
freeway, I'll admit that I ocassionally go over the speed limit,
but nothing dramatic, most cars are still passing me, so the
cops go by me and catch the guy that's going 20-30 MPH
over the speed limit.

On the other hand,
I might be tempted to say that you give up too easily. Politicians
have to answer to the people, usually those who make the most noise.
Record the problem. Present the issue to the town council, their
decisions are public record. Make it known that if, at some point in
the future, a kid does get killed due to a speeding car, that they can
be held as a party to the crime, due to their negligence, and refusal
to act to mitigate the situation in the face of irrefutable evidence.


That's correct, petitions, 80% of residents, they still didn't care.
Yes, it usually takes a fatality for locals to install stops signs,
speed enforcement etc etc in the state of California.
You usually can not hold a California politician accountably
unless they show gross disregard or criminal activity.

Do we, as American citizens, not have a responsibility to stand up

for
what is right? Do we have a responsibility to instill the need to be
more law abiding?

Yes, but as for "enforcement" of most laws, that is the responsibility

of
the Police, not average Joe on the street.

The police are given the jurisdiction to make arrests and levy fines.
But we all share the responsibility to make it known that we will not
stand by and allow these things to go on. By doing nothing, you are
giving your passive condonation, which further re-enforced the
attitude that breaking the law is "ok".


Here's where we part company Dave....... I AM NOT A
LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER! I will report it to
the local authorities, hope that they handle it accordingly,
that is the reason I pay taxes.


We're not really parting company. I'm not advocating that you play
cop. But reporting the issue repeatedly WILL get the attention of the
LEO's, and the problem will get some attention. If nobody takes the
responsibility to make those reports, the cops will think that all's
well in happytown.

When have I EVER done that? YOU are the


one who sees fit to paste it in, when it suits


you. I deliberately do not bring my ham status


into this group as a rule, since it is not


relevant. The fact that my call is part of my


email address is incidental, not deliberate.


Dave


"Sandbagger"


http://home.ptd.net/~n3cvj
_
Oh? Someone ELSE made your email for you, making it "incidental"
(definition: "Happening or likely to happen in an UNPLANNED
conjunction")?
_
Sigh. I should have known I'd have to explain


it to you in the same manner that I have to use
when explaining things to my 4 year old.

_
Your 4 year old has been that age for years. Why is that child not
aging, Davie? Ah..never mind.
_
My 4 year old has been a 4 year old since


January. Before that, she was a three year


old.

_
I said never mind, but you have exhibited an uncanny penchant for
invoking your child into this newsgroup on many occasion, but such is to
be expected from fathers who are separated from their child and only
permitted supervised visits. Your pain manifests in the strangest of
places, such as this group, but really, it isn't relevant, except to
illustrate you couldn't even maintain a successful relationship with the
mother of your child, let alone anyone else.
_

*I* made up my email address. But its


inclusion in any headers is not a deliberate act
on my part.

_
No one mentioned headers, Davie, except you. Let's look at what you said
again.
_
No, let's keep what you said in context.

_
LOL..of course you would say NO to looking at what you said, it presents
your idiocy and self-contradictions.
_
You said:
=A0
=A0"Same reason you feel it pertinent to present your hammie call in a
CB ng.
_
Which to anyone with normal comprehensive


skills, would mean that I deliberately sign my


messages with it or otherwise include the fact


within the message body.

_
Which has nothing to do with headers you are s-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g to
invoke, Davie-son, just like I maintained and you refused to
acknowledge.
_
Since you once again ran your fingers before


you had your brain fully engaged, you made


that erroneous accusation, and are now


backpeddling.

_
The back pedal is all yours. To "peddle", is to sell your wares,
Davie-son. but since you again ran your mouth and fingers before you had
your brain engaged, you made that erroneous statement and are now being
force-fed the correction.
_
I am hardly "flaunting" my ham status.

_
No one accused you of doing such. You're way too paranoid.
_
You did, see above.

_
I did no such thing. I claimed you brought your call sign to this group
after you claimed you did not. Anyone with normal cognitive
comprehension skills that do not suffer such massive communication
deficits sees that you most certianly did bring your call here. To wit:
_
The fact that my call is part of my


email address is incidental, not deliberate.

_
Again,,the call is most certainly deliberate and NOT incidental. Sit
down and take a rest, as your are quite dizzy from all that spinning you
attempt.
_
You will not see me signing it in the message


body of any message posted on this group.

_
Never claimed such,,,,merely claimed that you indeed brought your call
to the group, and you did. Now you're angry once again because I
illustrated your goofy lies and you resorted to what you always do when
caught in lies,,,,,insults. You're a lowlife, davie-son.
_
You need to dig some more. The only thing


you're coming up with are dirty hands.

_
No need to dig. One merely needs to watch your posts full of
contradictions and lies.
_
I made no such contradictions. Conversely,


you make many accusations which, when


confronted with them, resort to obfuscation


and spin followed by the inevitable


backpeddle.


Like your lie concerning the Phelps, or the cber in "suburban"
philthadelphia (which you demonstrated you have no clue what constitutes
a "suburbia" of a town or city) that you claimed was convicted, except
no record exists.
Indidentally (hyuk), those "dirty hands" only come from handling you and
dragging you across the coals with your own lies.
_
You are the only one who lies here. And


you're not even dead yet.....

_
Sucks for you and Lelnad,,,,LOL..the both of you scumbag lids harass
cbers for behavior you both engaged,,I merely point such things out and
watch you go to pieces, insult, and cry about off-topics.

There's a difference between a rental car agency and a provision in

only proves that the technology is viable.


As a parent, I have become very conscious of people speeding through
residential neighborhoods. I would hate to have my kid or an
neighbor's kid fall victim to someone who's ignoring a "nuisance" law.

Good Luck! I've gone to the city and county councils, tried

Not really. I don't lambast people directly, only their ideas.


I am a little that way, as for

is tha I kill myself. As for on the freeway, Bronco doesn't go

but nothing dramatic, most cars are still passing me, so the
cops go by me and catch the guy that's going 20-30 MPH

Same thing here. I never speed in a residential area. I may push it to
60 or 62 MPH on the highway, since they can't cite you in Pa, until
you exceed 5 MPH over the limit.


On the other hand,
I might be tempted to say that you give up too easily. Politicians

Yes, it usually takes a fatality for locals to install stops signs,
speed enforcement etc etc in the state of California.
You usually can not hold a California politician accountably
unless they show gross disregard or criminal activity.


Those petitions and other actions that you take can be admitted as
evidence. Their lack of response can then be interpreted as "gross
negligence". Most juries would be more inclined to side with the dead
kid's parents than a do-nothing politician.

Maybe if a few cases set precedent, other local politicians will sit
up and take notice.

Brings back memories of a time when you could order a car right out of
the factory with choice of engine, whether you wanted dual carbs,
choice of rear, choice of exhaust, etc. And best of all, it could be
had for under $3000.
