No harm, no cop, no foul

Let’s be honest, who hasnt fucked up their chassis while crossing the median doing an illegal u-turn on the highway at 3am in the morning while running on 2 hours of sleep?

Cause I sure haven’t

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I didn't fuck the chassis up. That's all I'm saying.

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 8 points 23 hours ago

Found the guy without bushes and trees on his medians...

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 hours ago

I haven't either.

Speaking of things I haven't done... I've have, not once, turned the wrong way down a one way street.

.... It was twice.

Not everyone should be forced to drive.

[–] SuiXi3D@fedia.io 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not everyone should be allowed to drive, either. Meanwhile here in Texas they give you a license regardless of any proven capability to use your eyes or think.

[–] rImITywR@lemmy.world 13 points 23 hours ago

You have to have a low bar as to who is allowed to drive when driving is a requirement for participating in society.

You say vehicular manslaughter, I say vehicular man’s laughter.

Must have been quite the joke.

I mean, what is illegal? If there is no enforcement (around me there are cops on the road like 2 days a month) then there are no road laws.

[–] Postimo@lemmy.zip 4 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Right! Like whenever I have a little oopsy daisy in my car I just take a breath and remind myself that laws are threats made by the dominant socio-economic, ethnic group in a given nation. It's just a promise of violence that's enacted and police are basically an occupying army.

[–] rImITywR@lemmy.world 10 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Traffic laws are also there so you don't kill someone with the multi tonne steel missile you are operating with such nonchalance.

[–] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 3 points 5 hours ago

Fucking right? "No cop saw me so it's fine!". Motherfucker, I saw you, had to slam on brakes because your selfish, non-thinking ass pulled an illegal maneuver.

[–] Postimo@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 hours ago

Sounds like something an occupying soldier would say 🤨

[–] Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Do you say that after running a stop sign in a school zone and killing a child?

[–] Postimo@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 hours ago

They were an adolescent at worst, and I didn't stop to see if they died, so that's pretty presumptive.

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

The IRS says you have to write yourself a ticket so you can pay tax on it. This is how they got Al Capone's driver.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 hours ago

This. Entirely this.

The frustrating part is when there are laws in place for something, and they're not being enforced and law makers think that making more laws about something will somehow fix the enforcement issues...

Making it more illegal only harms law abiding people, enforcement actually harms the law breakers.

It's not rocket surgery.

Pan to the terrified passenger

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

If a tree crosses a red light in the forest and no cops are there to hear it, is it illegal, chat?

[–] rImITywR@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago

Does the tree kill a cyclist who had a green signal?

[–] InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 3 points 18 hours ago

Who needs laws when you got four paws. Am I right?

[–] ThisNibbaCORNY@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

He just like me fr

[–] Haaveilija@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

A fine for speeding, pariking or something else?
