‘Abide by the law’

Dear Editor:

RE: ‘Control-minded,’ July 4.

If more and more people would “begin” to abide by the law, instead of treating our streets and highways as though they were on a NASCAR track, the revenue wouldn’t come close to the writer interpreting it as a “cash grab.” 

Regardless of the speed you feel you can safely drive on any stretch of roadway, there is a legal limit to be obeyed and a fine may be imposed the “one time” you get caught.

The same applies to other infractions with monetary fines. The rules apply to everyone the same, with no exceptions. 

It’s unfortunate that the majority in our society don’t believe in being part of the solution and prefer to take part in the problems of today’s reality.
