Whether we want to admit it or not, we all break laws. Some folks litter. Some folks speed. Some do rolling stops. Some refuse to wear seat belts. Some drink and drive. And so on and so forth. Most of us take our lumps when caught.
I admit that I love to drive fast when conditions permit. I've been pulled over for speeding. Heck, I've even slowed down so the officer could safely catch me. I've been lectured for going too fast but rarely received a ticket because I was actually driving safely (two tickets).
As I said earlier, TV has too many stop signs. Some make absolutely no sense. In many instances, yield signs make a lot more sense. In some instances, nothing makes the most sense.
If people would use common sense and automatically slow down when coming to an intersection, actually pay attention when driving and drive appropriately for conditions, we would probably have less traffic signs and laws and definitely have less accidents.
So, could all of you perfect, absolute law-abiding folks get off your high horse and admit that you break laws as well when you feel it is warranted?
