Most of the time politicians have complete boneheaded ideas, but this one takes the cake, and it puts more people in catastrophic danger, that will force them to pass more boneheaded laws to protect people from their first boneheaded law.
Ok the SC Congress has passed a bill that has been sent to the Governor to be signed. The bill they passed will allow motorcycle, scooter, and bicyclists to actually run a red light if it has been red for more than two minutes and no traffic is coming.
This is the stupidest law i could ever think of. This will do nothing but put people lives in jeopardy. People think that drunk drivers are a threat to public safety, this is more of a danger than dui has been or ever will be. Picture it, a motorcycle driver will be stopped at a light, look both ways, see nothing coming, take off, and a car will fly through the light and hit the motorcycle driver and hurt, if not kill the motorcycle driver.
What will happen is this. The fatality rates of these drivers will skyrocket, then the "caring" politicians will have to pass more laws to rectify the situation they created, and end up squashing rights in the process.
Viva Liberty!
