It seems to me the overwhelming majority of upset people are unhappy over a traffic issue. Speed traps, ticket happy cops..all inspire the fear that around the next bend might be that cop. This apprehension of receiving the ticket is what keeps people slowed down.

It is impossible to make everyone happy. So when someone gets a ticket in the apparently "not busy neighborhood", they are upset. But the woman inside her home, tired of people speeding by her house as her child plays, is jumping with joy.

Todd95gt - I feel for you. We just had a female Officer from a local community die in a traffic crash. Nothing tears me up like the sound of those bag pipes.

As for the California laws, I can assure you that is quite the opposite of good ole Illinois.
