News you can use. - Sunlight is the best disinfectant

Well, if it's not on Google Maps . . .

I saw this on a message board recently and wondered why the guy would ask about getting out of the ticket when he says the sign was there but Google Maps didn't see the sign.

"I recently received a ticket for making a left turn from a left turn lane. I was shocked (literally had NO idea why they were pulling me over), but apparently they installed a new rule/sign that doesn't allow it during certain times in the morning. My google maps didn't know that and I didn't notice the sign so I followed my google maps and got a ticket. It was a trap."

Is it a trap if you use Google Maps as your rule of law rather than the posted signs?

The lesson here is simple: Pay attention to the road and signs.

How many people have driven into bodies of water and other places where vehicles don't belong?

They use to refer to that as the "thinning of the herd".

No need too cull the herd, just surgically take whoever out of the gene-pool, along with the other South Florida drivers who do not understand why turn-signals are on today vehicles...

We used Waze in Costa Rica. On the way to Monteverde, we ended up on a road so crazy that, even though I'm sure it ended in Monteverde, it was impossible for our 4 wheel drive vehicle. When the lady and her child on the horse road by us looking like we were crazy, we knew we had to turn around and find the passable road.
