    hey woreout here is a guy made good use of his bumper or so he thought

    A truck driver was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly using a mechanical bumper which hid his license plate as he passed through the E-ZPass lane on the George Washington Bridge between New York and New Jersey.
    According to police reports, the 45-year-old driver had a switch in his truck that activated the device and lifted the license plate out of sight of the toll booth cameras.
    Obviously we don’t condone breaking the law, but with the ever increasing prices of tolls who could really blame him?
    The George Washington Bridge currently costs $95 for a five axle commercial truck to pass.

    Made it to my 0615 walmart delivery 20 minutes early despite giving myself 2 hours to play with. Roads turned to absolute garbage once I got off the interstate and on the state roads of VA. Slow and steady though and I got there....and then it turns out I wasn't early. Somebody screwed up and my appointment was actually 0515. But since I was within the hour they gave me a door and here I sit. Quite frankly they can take as long as they want, I need to unwind....I might have cried if I drove through that mess only to be turned away

    I cleverly missed the latest frozen mess. Instead of big roads via Memphis and Birmingham, I disobeyed the gps and went straight thru Arkansas on the little roads down to the Tallulah TA. It started snowing when I was getting ready to leave, but just warm enough not to stick. Further south I got, the temp gradually crept up for just some rain. A balmy 61º and more rain in Orlando now.

    Florida had a guy on a motorcycle that used a sharpie pen to alter his plates and run the sunpass lanes. The guy who had the real plate matching the altered one was getting lots of love letters from the toll agency. Thing is, the violations were all happening down south near Miami and he lived on the panhandle where there aren't any toll roads. They finally nabbed the bad guy. I also heard of motorcyclists that lean over the tank and throw a foot across the plate when they ride through. Just imagine if any of those masterminds actually applied their talents for something productive?
