If it is to make a point of having people think twice, maybe an answer is taking it to an extreme so that it is never violated?
your thoughts?
Just so you know, I'm not trying to cause a flame war. Other viewpoints on a topic are what forums are about. The main focus of your response was the law in place, but I am more interested in the fines associated. Are we cool on that? Not looking for a fight (there's enough of that going on right now), just looking for constructive input from different people.

I told you my opinion on the fines in the first post. Though you seem to be getting yourself hung up on the point that I also pointed out the violations themselves.
I will say this again. If you don't like the fines don't commit the crime. Why is that so lost on you? Are you determined to violate the laws which for the most part are reasonable laws?
Instead of listening to my logical answer about the fines, you decide to take it to extremes, to try to illicit a debate. A debate over something that is really not worth the time to expound upon on a enthusiasts forum about cars not about fines.
Now if they said we are going to fine you for this on your car, which they do do I might add. Then it might be a more worthwhile debate. Though for you to take it to extremes for a pretty much worthless debate. I.E. the laws are on the books already short of getting a bill before the state senate to lower the fines nothing is going to happen either way. Is pretty much a excerise in forum bandwith waste.
