If you think all panhandlers are out for a donation to their living expenses, read this article in the Seattle Times about some sneaky ways they are catching drivers who do not wear their seat belts. I think that it’s a really good idea. I mean, yes, it is only a seat belt, but they save lives and you should have it on regardless. But, my favorite part of the article is near the end:
One passenger rolled down his window, hollered obscenities at Linn and hurled a half-full can of soda before he realized Linn was a trooper. The man was given a $1,050 littering ticket. A 15-year-old who was driving the car was cited for not having a valid license and for allegedly stealing his father’s rental car, Kesler said.
Yea, classic. Way to be, champ.
