Dang, this is yet another harsh legislative session.
Stiffer penalties for speeders. 1st offense is $500 fine, 30-day license suspesion, and community service...dang! It gets stiffer the as the offense increases...this will not be in effect until 2007, supposedly. I didn't get the full gest of this particular bill.
Hee hee...HPD rep. states that the fastest speed clocked was on the H-3 at 140 mph...guy pauses for a bit and reluctantly states...in which the person was caught...
I was not able to keep up w/ the race park bill. They better get funding or open another one up on Oahu some how...I guess that's one of many reasons why the above bill is being passed.
Smoking ban will be passed. I think it was no smoking in any pubic place?
I think the waiting for the pedestrian in the cross walk violation on drivers was axed at this time but will go up in next years legislative session. Another bill that I think was axed was the gas cap law.
Of course, the govenor can veto these bills, we'll just have to see what happens. She has done some strange vetoing last legislative session so we'll just have to see how things fall into place...it is election year so...
I guess a lot of this is for the better...depending on opinions. I'm just recaping what I heard on the news. It'll be more clear in tomorrows newspapers, I believe. Well...just giving a heads up on what's going on w/ our laws here...peace!
