How can you safely operate a vehicle when you are thown from the drivers seat or ejected in an accident?
Any accident of that magnitude, the operations aspect are over anyway.

I would agree there are "lame" tickets. Seat belts tickets for one.
You know I got one of these (nanny) tickets while parked on the curb outside a construction site where my brother was working. I was waiting for him to come out and have lunch with me the day before I left the country. Not driving, not parking officer just roled past me turned around kicked his lights on and wrote me a ticket even though I explained the situation I was in. I left the next day and was gone 7 months with no way to pay the ticket so they suspended my drivers license and made me take classes to get my license back. His justification to me was that the curb was not a designated parking area, so I must wear a seat belt while stopped there.
I am sure these laws serve... some purpose but I don't know what it is. Except to let politicians pretend they are doing something productive.

According to the last census, your town has about a 12% Hispanic/Latino population. Assuming ALL of them are non-English speaking immigrants (although like anywhere most of these percentages are made up of 2nd/3rd/etc generation), thats still not enough to need to know the language unless they're ALL in a position of authority. Why is it that such a small percentage sticks out so much to you?Its a step in the right direction, but one step wont cover a mile.
I have no problem with some funding being used to educate LEGAL immigrants in learning the English language, but at the same time, these immigrants need to be footin some of the bill here too. Their education, they need to pay as well.
Likewise, my daughter should not have to be fluent in English and another language (Spanish) to be able to live in Logansport. Sadly being bilingual is almost neccessary anymore!

Of what magnitude? 20 MPH accident is enough to throw people out from behind the wheel. 45 MPH will eject you from the vehicle. You can remain in control in both if you are wearing a seatbelt.
i agree with this guy. old "random thumbs up guy" they call him.
You'll never make 50 posts that way.
LMAO!!!i agree with this guy. old "random thumbs up guy" they call him.

You've not wrecked many vehicles have you? You hit something at 20 mph your not going to be able to control the vehicle, let alone 45. Saying your hitting something hard enough to cause you to be jarred away from the wheel. I've been out in some back country roads no seat belt on bouncing around the cab, vehicle still in my control. If i was to of hit something the vehicle would be most likely pushed past the point of saving it.
Seatbelts are a good way to ticket me.
