yeah, like this will hold up to appeal...

on this new "civil fees" bullshit...

New traffic ‘civil remedial fees’ will wallop the wallets of traffic offenders on OurValley.org:

Play an R or X rated movie on the van DVD player and if it is seen by someone in another vehicle, a driver can be charged and fined with having an obscene video image seen from outside the car. The civil fee is $300.

This one will never hold up in court.  It puts the onus of determination of "obscene" onto the MPAA, a non-government, unregulated agency.  Preexisting state laws already put the determination of "obscene" as the responsibility of the local community, and no community is permitted to use the MPAA rating as a means of such determination - that's already been argued and lost in several federal districts.

As for the rest of the "fees", it's possible for someone to present a reasonable argument that would have them qualified as excessive under the cruel and unusual punishment statute.

Hey Kaine you pussy, I didn't put you in that seat to defer your responsibility to govern to the whims of bureaucrats and over-eager cops.  I put you in that seat to do your fucking job and figure out FAIR ways to pay for the needs of the state.
