"At issue are the LAPD requests to re-certify the streets in accordance with CVC 40802(b) in order to justify enforcement of the speed limit by radar." That could explain why a ticket I got a while back didn't get the typical 'Guilty' response a week after submitting my paperwork. Instead, I got it dismissed since the "officer was on leave" about 2 months later. Either way I'm ecstatic. To the Valley MotoCop lying in wait on the sidewalk; better luck next time and don't forget about that valid engineering survey! ;)

YO - I'll see you in committee today! This LADOT assessment is like staring into the abyss - traffic engineering's deep, dark, love for automobiles over all else.

The though of little kids being hit by buses makes my morning just a little bit easier to get through....

Were you on vacation? Because man was it nice reading posts with productive criticism for a while and not just whine, whine, whine with several failed attempts at subtle social irony.
