It seems like everyone is doing it, but is it really safe? Is it likely i'll be caught and substantially fined? Does anyone know any statistics about this or recent devlopments in the law? what happened to those people that were fined a few months ago????

LMAO!!! That $2.81 qualification, is hilarious!!! Please, it's sooo not immoral, "just" illegal.  I say if you're bold enough to get over there and get your solitary carpool on, go for it.  LOL It's not going to bother me in the slightest if I'm in the carpool lane legally - do your thing if you don't mind the points on your license and the exorbitant fees!!! And you know if you get caught twice and/or three times, the penalties and fees get steeper and steeper, and the points on your license add up to higher car insurance rates... so you might want to recalculate that $2.81.  *shrug* Just a thought.

If you are not safe, you are not free.  Many times, when a person was attacked (be it rape, robbery, whatever) I have heard people say things like, "Well, she should not have gone to the mall by herself at night.  It's not safe."  Or, "Well, he should not have driven through that neighborhood." So, how free are we if a law-abiding citizen "is not supposed to" go out where they want to legally go?  \n\nI have nothing against security measures such as cameras in parks, parking lots, etc.  The camera does not prevent you from doing one legal thing.

I have heard bits and pieces of the story about the ex president.  I think it is insane that things like this is allowed to go on in other parts of the world.  I live in the US and everything here isn't perfect but our ex president about got in alot of trouble for getting a B.J. from someone besides his wife.  They are things that go on in Africa I really don't understand.  I think they are wrong and will never travel to this part of the world because of lack of people being prosecuted for crime they commit.  I'm not telling you that you should leave, this is something you need to decide for your self.  If you don't fill safe you need to leave.  Safe should be you main concern.  It don't look like you are in a very safe place.

I asked a similar question yesterday and completly agree with everything you say - it really does defy belief.\n\nPlus, what sort of messege does this send? e.g. its ok to take drugs, kill someone and go to prison because when you get there you can either carry on taking drugs living in luxery at the taxpayers expense or sue the state and win loads of cash.\n\nEnough is enough - this government is a complete farce and really has lost the plot, my vote will be going elsewhere (anywhere in fact that is not Labour) at the next election. I hope others do the same.

Well here in NY this is indeed rare.  the only time most of us will get to ride in patrol car is when we're arrested and booked.\n\nStrange that Tampa police would give you this service.  Sounds suspicious.  why would they do this????????\n\nMost police depts. have specific rules forbidding this and discouraging this practice.  So WHY do your local police do this service for you ???????????   I simply can't understand what's going on.

Someone would be very dumb to admit to something like that on here. It is an illegal activity, as you know. Even though we are "anonymous" on here, we must all remember that people are "watching" and they have the resources to determine who is who on here. Just be careful.

Very good question...\n\nThey shouldn't be and I have asked myself this same question before. \n\nI mean it is like this.. so you are anti-environment.... what does taking precautions hurt? Is it not better to be safe than sorry? I don't get the opposition.\n\nI don't get why this became a political issue in any way, shape or form... makes no sense whatsoever. Is it not for the betterment of our world? How on earth is that political?

Leave all is info with a friend, including any pictures of him.  Meet in an open safe place.  Bring someone with you.  Take your own car and don't let him know where it is parked.  In my community we had someone who was just arrested for meeting ladies on line and raping them.  He was quite handsome too.  So beware and have fun.

I've heard and seen for myself the horrors. For one, if you're driving and a Dubai citizen cuts you off and hits your car...and you try calling the police, I guarentee you that you will be arrested. There is just so much of inequality even if you lead a complete expat lifestyle away from the locals you are still under the same laws. Not worth the money!

Do all or any of the above.....Just better watch out...Better make sure all the t's are crossed and all the i's are dotted in you life. Although this is America, good people have been made out to look bad in order to reduce creditability.  People have become missing or worse.  I don't mean to scare you,  and I don't mean to sound like a paranoid freak.  But It can open you up and make your life a living hell.  People, especially Sheriff's, Judge's  and lawyers don't like to be exposed and  they know how to use the system........May I suggest, leaking the info to the news...anonymously......Good luck!

Its not a good idea.  There are 3 crimes that you ought to avoid in USA.  They give you life easy if you are convicted.  If you are convicted of murder, convicted of rape, and convicted of grand larceny.  I mean, these three crimes will land you in jail for the rest of your life.  I would rather cheat someone, and employee, or cheat a customer.  I would never steal anything.  Its just not worth it anymore...hehee..."anymore"  But, do look into a job, because sometimes you only need to find a job to realize what its worth.  Id rather break into an abandoned home and work out of there till you have enough money.  Its alot better then stealing.  Breaking and entering may not be much in jail if you are caught.  Especially an abandoned home.  They will take it to heart that you are a homeless with no where else to go.  Try going around looking for things that you can find on the streets to sell.  The easiest is cans.  There are other things of course.  Or, try to get money for an ax and try selling chopped wood.  I mean its better then throwing your life away.  Good luck bro...

Have fun and be careful. You are right, it does show complete trust. A little odd though, I never tried it.

IT IS NOT SECURE, The technology it will be based on has been cracked ALREADY!\n\nIt will FAIL in it's intended purpose, cost a FORTUNE and not work!\n\nApart from the very valid civil liberty concerns (completely reversing the relationship between citizen and state making the state the master and the citizen a tagged serf), and the idea that this means that for the first time all innocent citizens will be in effect asking for the state's permission to exist in their own country. tagged, tracked, monitored, spied on at all times. \n\nThis is a chilling trend, Government becoming more and more secretive whilst expecting the electorate to be ever more open to intrusive privacy destroying spying from the state. \n\nExcuse me big brother state, but what I do, and who I am, and where I go, so long as it is all legal, IS NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS!!!\n\nBut even allowing for those arguments, the technology will not work and it will be a massively expensive, unethical, immoral failure.\n\nRead the news story below. It cannot work to stop crime as it has already been hacked!\n\nBTW to the ignorant and dangerously stupid woman who anwered above stating that any action that stops even 1 crime is worth it??? Hand yourself in to the police now, it may stop you commiting a crime! Would you approve of the police locking up everyone, as if we were all in prison already, we would not be able to commit a crime at all?

Week after week they are in our local paper - immigrants caught driving with no license, insurance, tax or MOT.  It makes me furious that the court fines them £80.00 and gives them 6 points on a license they haven't even got.  Wheres the deterrent ??? My daughter paid £800 for her insurance when she was young - she would never have thought have driving without it because she has a conscience - these people don't. What we need is harsher sentencing or better still a ruling which says asylum seekers convicted of anything in the first year here get deported - then we don't have them stuck in our prisons paid for with tax payers money xx\n\nTo all you who are saying this is racist - I don't see it. Maybe you dont live in an area affected by these drivers. I live near Harlington where many asylum seekers are housed awaiting decision and its a real problem here.  Wait until you or someone close to you are hit by one of these people and tell me what you think then !!!!

Greetings from inside the Yahoo Brain in New York City!\nHope you're catching the live webcast at: http://advision.webevents.yahoo.com/asktheplanet/brain.html !\n\nWhy is robbing a bank illegal?  It helps you get money which you need, right?  So that should be fine, then.\n\n--J.
