Re: Possible fatal error?

$52.50 is correct.

The courts use a set fine as approved/published, not what the HTA says.

Re: clocked wille passing

Obviously I was not there. I have never ever heard of an oncoming/approaching traffic lane being known as a "left" lane, until now. So, I apologize for becoming confused from your original post and should have clarified from the start.

Re: Golf carts

private campground - I would say that you can not have alcohol off of your designated "site".

Under definition of residence, there is this little clause: "including all premises used in conjunction with the place to which the general public is not invited or permitted access".

Re: The Loud Muffler Backlash Begins...

it is articulation and how each side presents their side of the story and how gathering of evidence is done.

I ride MC, loud mufflers do nothing but disturb the neighbourhood and does not safe any lives. Want to save lives, stop wearing black leather. Wear bright coloured armoured type jackets.
