Well, it just goes to show I didn't know any better, but I now feel suitable re-educated!

If they can't drive, how are they supposed to get to the polls to vote? Or is that what this is really all about?

You can also walk into a DMV with someone elses Birth Certificate, and Social, and get a legal ID under that name. They could have made the law a little less moronic, but hey, thats is what is in our state, moron politicians with more money than sense.

It is stupidity and common sense, but with how useless these politicians are, and how freaking over taxed we are (look up the stats) , they need to act like they are doing something, while they rip the money out of our pockets more than any other state in the Union.

You know NJ has 21 prisons, not counting satellite camps, Highest property taxes in the nation, and still rising, we just had a shooting the next town over from me, where cops watched a Neptune Township cop, chase his wife in a car, shoot her multiple times through the car door, then walk up to the windshield, with his gun raised and did nothing while he finished her off.



Hey it's NJ!!

Dead people cannot drive, but the police get free reign.

The posted speed is 65 MPH, but the normal flow of traffic is 80 MPH. The road was supposed to be toll free years ago, but our politicians keep stealing the money, so the tolls go up... They have cameras at the toll plazas, and I make it a point to give the finger as I pull in.

I remember when I was (staying with the flow of traffic mind you) and going 95 MPH and a state trooper blows by me at 100 plus, we made eye contact, I was horrified, he just kept going, I was relieved. (30 mph over the limit is a huge kick in the backside, you get points, fines court dates, it's a mess)

Take it from a Jersey boy, we are screwed up.But I would live no place else. NJ accepts people like me

Pfff, every road in Slovenia is like that
If you drive on the speed limit the cops are going to pull you over thinking you're drunk
