Hello Lonnie,
please keep that fine list out of the hand of our president.
Oscar Arias loves to make up new outraged fines to fill the groundless state pockets.
But anyhow in Costa Rica the left lane is the slowest one. Because of just one common rule: (in my eyes the base of our "stable" democracy)
"Anarchy of every single person! - I do what I want to - wherefore stick to rules - they are for to disobey!"
What fun it would to be a motorcycle traffic cop and pick out just those stupid speeders ("piques") that put into danger other drivers.
Best regards
Sven Peter
PS: My wife should have been fined yesterday twice within 2 blocks just because it was not HER day to go down town to an urgent medical visit.
(You aren't allowed to go down town on certain week days depending on your last number plate number and there are no ring roads!) (In Mexico City that same "fuel saving" media raised a few decades ago the number of vehicles by factor 2 within one year!)--

Hi Guys,
Well, our wonderful governor needs her new helicopter every year, right? And our Legislative Assistants need to be making $55,000.00 just to eke out a bare living in Olympia, y'know...
I'd guess we aren't alone, but this last weekend I took the bike/chair down to Oregon to visit friends, and it was really neat to cross the Lewis & Clark Bridge from Longview, and have a friendly Oregon cop actually wave and give me a "thumb's up" when I rode past him!
Probably even in Washington it is a matter of the mood of the individual cop, but it shouldn't be that way---we shouldn't be subject to the whim of any individual. So.....despite their best efforts, we DO still have a vote. Send the old crooks home, and get a brand-new set.....of crooks.
I have a trailer for the sidecar bike I was rebuilding---I think I'm just gonna sell it or junk it or something that won't require a license.
"Roll bars"? "Seat Belts"? What fresh insanity is this?? Jeez, I hope the legislators aren't reading this---once in their heads, an idea, no matter how foolish, seems to take root and bloom into law.....
I need another ride.....553 miles this last weekend wasn't enough!

Oh, not at all true. There is a minimum foolishness threshold.
I just saw this at esc Facebook Page. They actually don't say what state it applies to but maybe we can add a steering wheel.
The changes to the three-wheel motorcycle endorsement law: As of July 26th 2009 you may not need a three-wheel endorsement to ride your three-wheel motorcycle if your three-motorcycle meets the following requirements:
1) The seat is located in an enclosed or partially enclosed seating area.
2) The vehicle is equipped with seat belts.
3)The vehicle is steered with a steering wheel.
Your vehicle must meet ALL THREE of these requirements to not require a three-wheel endorsement to ride or drive. To read the complete law about equipment requirements see RCW 46.37.530.
To take a motorcycle safety class and qualify for your two-wheel or three-wheel motorcycle endorsement go to www.esc.org to register for a class. Evergreen Safety Council offers motorcycle safety classes that that offer a license waiver of further testing at the DOL when qualifying for a motorcycle endorsement. Classes are available for beginner and experienced riders
Joyce,
These changes may be partly due to Pete Larsen of Liberty Motors manufacture of a three wheel (2 in front, 1 in back) cycle car. There are also other three wheeled cycle cars on the way from the Orient to fill the new "Less is More" movement (you know, park the earth friendly p--pot next to the Humvee to save the planet group.

...Thinking this would cover the trike I've seen at two ABATE spring-openers now... "stallion" IIRC.
