  Speaker 1: Alive so the speed limits. FIFTY i, said, oh it
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: doesn't make much. SENSE i do understand, it but it
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: doesn't make much sense to slow down highway traffic because
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: people coming out of the Little County roads can't drive and,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: UH i got the. TICKET i paid the, ticket and
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: that's been twenty five years.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: Ago the best thing to do When i'm gonna write
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: your ticket is you try to argue or debate your
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: way out of, it you, know because that always works the, best.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: DON'T i don't argue or debate. Anything i'm, respectful but
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: IF i have something to, Say i'll SAY i got
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: a seat belt ticket once and. Uh and he, goes
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: why aren't you wearing a seat? BELT i, said BECAUSE
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: i hate. Him don't like something wrapped around my neck
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: When i'm looking over my left shoulder trying to see
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: if anything's coming. UP i don't need that thing rubbing
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: the side of my. Face i'm a big. BOY i
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: don't like the seat. Belt and quite, frankly if we
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: didn't have insurance company lobbying the, legislature we wouldn't have
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: a seat belt law in this city or in this state.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Anyway he, GOES i kid argue with, that but it
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: is the. Law here's your, ticket, okay all, right yeah
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: he acknowledged. It, REALLY i, mean, seriously that's all the
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: seat belt law. Is the insurance companies want to pay
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: out as little as possible so they can maximize, profits
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: and so they want people in seat belts to, think
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: maybe we can prevent larger, claims less in, damages less death.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Benefits so we want you wearing a seat. Belt that's
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: exactly why we have a seat belt. Law you God,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: jack you're, wrong, Man you're. Wrong it's about, safety which
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: is exactly why the same state that requires me to
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: wear a seat belt lets you ride a motorcycle with no.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Helmet it's not about. Safety it's about, money people trying
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: to save theirs and take. Hours it's all there is to.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: IT i don't care if it's not a popular. Opinion
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: it's a truthful. Opinion and If i'm going to travel any,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: distance you, KNOW i put it on just BECAUSE i
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: don't want to pay the damn. Ticket BUT i still hate.
