The same should be true for Race and job type!

I did not mean to mis quote you Otto. It just sounds like cops may selectively enforce the speeding laws.

I asked about the difference between LAW and CRIME and “violations” or “forfeitures” in another post, but I do not believe there was an answer.

Even though you ANAL (doesn’t sound right 🙂 ) you seem to have some good ideas on the subject and that is fine with me - especially since the lawyers do not seem to be biting???
