I remain amused by the attitude of many that (a) "I did not know of that rule, and I didn't bother to check, so it cannot possibly apply to me!", or (b) "I'm quicker, smarter, faster or have done this in the past, so the rule is meaningless and not applicable to me!"

In this life or another the avoidance of Chicken Sh*t rules is practically impossible, even for those who cower under their beds waiting for the flop-flop of black helo blades. But it's not the existence or level of CS within the rule that counts, or the intent of those who composed it (or of those empowered to enforce it). It's there, and as with school zone speeding or purchasing illegal substances from a seller previously unknown, this may be your day in the barrel!
