Yes they’re rich a-holes who don’t want to build windmills because a) Phil Murphy is governor, b) drill baby drill!, and c) they’re stupid.

Edit: the luddites are getting to to this comment pretty late. Maybe they’ll appreciate clean energy by 2060.

From my lifetime of New Jersey living you are in the middle of Central New Jersey. Another entry said you were at the northern point of the shore region and I would have to agree with that too.

Reply to comment by ceeyell in Student Driver on Left Lane by [deleted]

Motor vehicle laws are for suckas, am I right?

Why is it ok to delay others even for a minute or two, especially when the delay is caused by not following driving laws? As someone who gets anxiety when I am in the way of others, I am genuinely curious..

EDIT: to be clear, I am asking to explain the reasoning behind this way of thinking, not the specifics of being a left lane hog

de-regulation always means de-regulating the shit people would never have voted for so that a few can make more money, and is usually detrimental to the common citizen in the long run. How bout de-regulating those breaks on train cars?

I agree its a campaign contributions problem. One party utterly supports Citizens United ruling and the other doesn't. That should tell you about campaign law. Economic conservatism always means Republicans spend like end times when in office and shout from the rooftops about spending when they are out of power. NJ Republicans are no different.

Maybe /u/mike268 can pop in, but I can imagine that when the officer goes into the computer to write the ticket, if the driver doesn't have a drivers license to scan/enter, you can probably automatically fill the ticket with the registered owner's information. Save the officer some time and risk of entering wrong information.

So i just saw a political comic while in South Jersey that had something along these lines, I too didn't quite get it either, but putting it together it seems that once again "they" are "framing it" that it's the green initiatives that are the real danger to the environment. Oil companies and their voluntary boot licking shills have no bottom in terms of deceit and irony.
