Speeding Politicians
Radley Balko has a good article at http://reason.com/news/show/120125.html discussing the various politicians and their “I’m above the law” habit of speeding.
My governor Corzine makes an appearance of course as the latest to get exposed, but Balko also discusses Rendell, Richardson, and several others.
Seems like the common excuse is “I’m busy and my driver was trying to get me to my next appointment on time”. Can I make a suggestion? Us common folk factor in travel time (lawful travel time) when we schedule our appointments. Why can’t they? Also in today’s world of video and phone conferencing, virtual meetings, etc., is it necessary to have all meetings face-to-face?
As Mel Brooks said, “It’s good to be the King”
