Lol it's a confusing intersection and they know it. That's why there's a cop posted there. Don't bother fighting it, you won't win and it'll be a waste of your time.

I guess if you consider that the majority of people either never use them or maybe try it once? But yeah 2 grams not even at a threshold where most people would feel uncomfortable or incapable of being out in public.

FYI the article poorly summarizes the bill and leads to the incorrect belief that the quantities listed are way off from reality. Here's the relevant section (bold added):
The possession, ingestion, obtaining, growing, giving away without financial gain to natural persons 18 years of age or older, and transportation of no more than two grams of psilocybin, psilocyn, dimethyltryptamine, ibogaine, and mescaline, excluding the weight of any material such as water, plant and fungi material of which the substance is a part or to which the substance is added, dissolved, held in solution, or suspended.
So if I'm reading this correctly the limit is 2 grams of psilocybin (an enormous amount), not 2 grams of mushrooms (a low dose).

You'll lose this one unless you get lucky BUT if you have other points for infractions you might fight it on the chance you win to keep the insurance surcharges down....
I say this as someone who was pulled over for 63-MPH on 128 25-years ago. I fought it, and despite the trooper not showing (sent a fill-in) I still lost!
EDIT: Looks like you have a speeding ticket from a few weeks back? 93 in a 75? Good luck.

Yes, you should waste your day trying fight it. I’m fact, I hope they double it. It’s uncourteous and oblivious drivers like you who make things harder for everyone else

It is the exact opposite. Traffic is significantly better on Mondays (and Fridays) Tue-Thurs is standard issue Boston traffic bullshit. People work from home and skip the commutes Mondays and Fridays.

Reply to Are Fitchburg and Leominster really that bad? If they are, what are some decent commutable areas to the Dirty Burg? by quark_the_bear
It’s funny. I am out in Groton and grew up 13 miles west of Boston so was not all that familiar with this area. People really love Leominster

Exactly. It's a panic / choke thing. Or they have a horrible sense of direction (like my wife).
I like to say, "There's no such thing as missing a turn because every road connects to itself." It's not like streets & exits are moving or vanishing targets. If you miss a turn, keep following your lane / road, loop around safely, and come back. It'll still be there. Sure, it's a pain, but it's a "dummy tax."

>This is different from legalization,’’ Jehlen said. “This is allowing personal use up to two grams. I think that’s probably enough for most people to use all the mushrooms they want to in their life.
Dear Fucking Clueless in Somerville,
Two grams in a lifetime, ha! I eat 2 grams of mushrooms every morning for breakfast just to make it through the day.

You should always follow through with the mistake. Just turn left and figure it out afterward. But yeah, it’s sometimes impossible to know which lane to be in, and sometimes the arrows are so faint you can barely see them.

These quotes from these fucking contractors are fucking ridiculous lately. I suggest waiting for the next recession before hiring a contractor to do anything. These prices are obscene. I got quoted $20,000 to out a bathtub in an existing bathroom. Insanity
