1. Car-pool lane - 1st time $1068.50 starting 1/1/07 (The$271
posted on the highway is old). Don't do it again because 2nd time is
going to be double. 3rd time triple, and 4th time license suspended.
2. Incorrect lane change $380. Don't cross the lane on solid
lines or intersections
3. Block intersection - $485
4. Driving on the shoulder - $450
5. Cell phone use in the construction zone. - Double fine
6. Passengers over 18 not in their seatbelts - both passengers
and drivers get tickets
7. Speeders can only drive 3 miles above the limit.
8. DUI = JAIL (Stays on your driving record for 10 years!)
9. As of 07/01/07 cell phone use must be "hands free" while
driving.


That's not good.

 

hm, so the cell phone law isnt passed yet? i drove by a cop in LA while i was on the cell phone and he just stared at me..

 

yay more laws...

=\

 

Not good at all..

 

Its all about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Pretty soon anything u do will be agianst the law.

 

Could you cite your sources? I call BS.

 

7. Speeders can only drive 3 miles above the limit.

I think that means that the first 3 miles are free, not the current 5. I doubt that's going to have any effect on the +20 mph limit which is normal around here.

 

it already is.

fk cali politicians.

 

I agree. Pretty soon they will just give us a damn ticket for driving a car that just looks fast even though we arent speeding.

 

As somebody already stated, can you please cite the source or post a link to this info and it better be on a Cali.gov-type site.

 

I call BS, no way can a carpool lane fine be 1k, then 2k, then 3k..

a freaking DUI is only like 4k in total costs I think.

 

lol i know someone that got a DUI, he decked out 10K on lawyer, bail, etc etc.

 

I got a ticket for 80 in a 65 the other day. ****ING CHP.

 

aaaahahhahaa de-bunking my own post!http://urbanlegends.about.com/librar..._laws_2007.htm

 

thanks for the heads up dood those laws totally BLOW

 

DAng.........I guess Just don't Break the LAW!

The speeding thing with our cars....mmmmmmmm hard NOT to break the law

 

you get bail back, and the lawyer's fees could've easily been 2k for a DUI case.

 

Well atleast you are the one who found the truth and thanks for trying to give us the heads up anyways.

Its the thought that counts.

 

last night my friends and i (three cars total....not racing we were in a one way street and the first guy went then the middle guy tries to cat h up and so does the last car) did 80+ in a 40 not knowing there was a chp car behind us when we started....and he just followed us through two stop lights...but didnt do anything O_O

when we realized ti was a cop we all were in awe that we diddnt get rolled....five minutes later after detouring we run into the same chp car...(well we assume tis the same chp...not many just pull off the freeway to cruise the mainstreets in our area)

 

Glad to know that the California is still making a profit off tickets.
