Along with a state approved rate increase a few months later so they can recover the repair costs.

If you don't answer, they'll pull you out of the car, make you do an FST, fail you, and arrest you. Cops have no accountability, and they know that even a false DUI arrest will likely result in the person losing their job and being forced to spend thousands of dollars to avoid conviction.

Several trees down on my property, and my boat/trailer is flipped on its side. Thankfully the power is still on for now.

There are openers with battery backup for around $100. Probably a good investment if the overhead door is the only way in.

Reply to Let's run a School Bus off of the Road! by 1mJustALurk3r
Nobody cares about anyone but themselves these days. I drive 84 daily, and the amount of absolutely crazy unsafe driers is out of control. People either are going 80+ swerving between cars, or are camped in the left lane doing 55. Seeing people use the shoulder and grass to pass cars is just wild.

Alcohol especially. Alcohol kills close to 150,000 Americans a year. With all the new candy flavors of alcohol that are aimed at kids, there should be laws requiring alcohol to be locked in a secure container if children are in the home.
But nobody wants to admit just how dangerous and deadly alcohol is, and will continue to ignore the epidemic of alcoholism and drunk driving.

Any weed edibles that copy real, copyrighted brand names of candy are fake. You buy the empty bags online, buy some real nerds, spray them with THC distillate, and put them in the edibles bags to sell. They don't come from dispensaries.

Most of the police fentanyl overdoses are fake and done for attention and social media clout.

Reply to Banned by CT lottery for winning consistently? by lbigz
Kind of like how casinos ban you for life if you win too often. When gambling, the house always wins, and if they lose, they'll just change the rules to stop you.

Cars now have cameras that can read speed limit signs. It won't be long before regulation exists forcing cars to limit themselves based on the signs they see.

So are they exempt from DUI law or will he be required to pay to install a breathalyzer interlock on his police vehicle? Do cops even get their drivers license suspended like every other person charged with DUI?
That's assuming he dosent get everything dropped once the media attention is gone.

Dragged? No. Cop chose to hang onto a moving vehicle. He could have simply let go.

You need to be wealthy and well connected to get into politics at the state level. Young people simply lack the connections that elderly people have made through the years.

How does that logic work when gun ownership among minorities and the LGBTQ community is growing very rapidly. Those groups who have been oppressed are realizing that they need to be able to defend themselves against the fascists that hate them.

We will never see more nuclear plants. They need to be placed near water for cooling, and the rich who own property near water simply won't allow a plant to be built where they can see it and anti nuclear activists will protest violently against it. Same with new pipelines. Rich land owners and environmental activist organizations will stop any new construction.
Poor people in Connecticut aren't wanted or welcome here. The rich can afford to pay these insane rates so they don't care.

They claim that the concrete sidewalk is too hard, and that the asphalt roads are softer and better to walk on.
