a fucking seatbelt ticket-$160! fuck nc

[b4ds33d]

i had a state trooper whip around in traffic to pull me over and give me a seatbelt ticket...and the fine is $25 with $130 in "fees." another example of generating revenue for the courts in the guise of 'doing things to help you." so i can buy and drink all the rotgut i want, which is exponentially more hazardous to my health that riding without a seatbelt...but that ok huh. why? because that rotgut is taxed, guess i just got taxed for not wearing a belt.

but fuck that shit, i didn't admit to not wearing a belt, and i had a friend in the car. i'm just going to go to court and fight this shit, and fuck a lawyer. anyone in nc have experience beating a seatbelt ticket?

Wear your seatbelt
It's the law but most importantly it saves lives

yeah, that's about the most dickish response i could get. and i've been a paramedic for over 20 years, i've seen seatbelt not save lives and actually end them more times than i care to talk about. but thanks for the reply??

My dad was a paramedic and first responder for over 30 years. I've heard him say the same thing.

Fact is that its a law for money reasons not to save lives.

I think its comical that seat belt laws exist in states that allow people to ride motorcycles without helmets.

Pretty sure seat belt laws are for safety not money
Was the cop trying to fill his quota? Maybe most likely
But that's different than why the law is there

People are so entitled today they think they can just do whatever they please and when they get caught they whine about it

How long does it take to clip in your seat belt ?
Come on white you know I'm making sense here

I KNOW RIGHT?! i've yet to see how seatbelt laws are for anything besides revenue generation. and in my time as a paramedic i've seen more people killed by seatbelts than i care to think about. not saying they'd have not been dead or severely injured anyway, but the first time you see a completely severed head or torso from a seatbelt makes you think damn....are they really THAT safe??

Should be a persons right to wear it or not. That's why I say its for money.

Any law or ordinance that has to do with something besides murder, rape, theft etc is there for money.

I've seen the damage seatbelts can do.

 

[b4ds33d]

Don't you have a klan rally to attend?

yup, you were supposed to pick me up 20 minutes ago.

Sunni is not like that. She is alright in my book.

 

[whitebb2727]

I wear a seatbelt and so do my kids. I just don't agree with forcing people to do things.

 

[Big_Lou]

Sunni is not like that. She is alright in my book.

She asked me to stop posting animated frog dicks, not exactly what I'd call 'oppressive tyranny'.

Then again, it takes so little for certain folks to become dreadfully butthurt, especially the kiddies...

so when someone's grow room gets raided by the feds in a state where cannabis is legal and they post an advice thread, does she go on there and post "well it's illegal....you should have known better" it's not much different than that. i guess i just expected a mature on the topic answer, i didn't get that from her. but whatev, some people get off on that shit, and more power to em. i'll just ignore it next time.

 

[slabhead]

Just be glad you didn't get shot or beaten. You might as well pay it and move on. The crooked bastards will only come down on your wallet more if you contest it. The DA will be sure only friends of LEO will be on the jury and the judge will rip your brains out. It is a rigged system. Best of luck.

thx man, but i'm gonna fight it, because the handy option to just mail in your "fine" is why they do that. too many people don't fight it. plus right now i'm not working and only going to school, so i have all the time in the world.
