However, with more motorists turning to motorcycles as their main mode of transportation, and the increase of rear end collisions, it increases the chance that a motorcyclist will be run down and killed trying to avoid going through a red light, just to avoid a ticket. It isn't the person who goes through with the light barely turning red that is a problem. It is the people who go through a red, that was red 2-3 seconds before they even entered the intersection, and those are the kinds of people that will run you over just because you tried to stop last second to make sure you didn't get a ticket. Also, If I borrowed your car, and drove it around, I could pick up tons of red light tickets and you would legally have to pay them. Any auto-generated ticket writer is a complete waste of taxpayers money, I'd rather pay for an aditional cop to roam the streets. |
Do you ever see people driving on motorcycles? Most of them deserve to die.
I see them all the time doing wheelies through intersections, weaving through traffic, and driving 100+ down the highway.
As for someone borrowing your car: don't let people drive your car. If that person isn't on your insurance, why are they driving your car anyways?
And once again, the auto-generated tickets work. Remember, the point of tickets isn't (or shouldn't be) to make money, it's to protect the citizens. It's true having a cop nearby makes you be a little more careful, but cops can't be everywhere at once.
