What do i thnk of the law
EOC week 2
I think the law is there to govern the lives of people. It has econimical inscentives. It is also there to protect people. They also have loop holes.
Laws govern people in many ways. Take traffic. The law states that you cant drive a vehicle on the I215 faster than 65 miles and hour. You also must STOP when it says you have to stop.
If you violate any of these things in the presence of a law enforcment officer, they have every right to pull you over and write you a ticket. Each traffic ticket that you have recieved requires a fine or if not a fee to pay or some money to be taken from you in one way or the other. In any case, if you get a ticket you are losing money. Money that could have still been your had it not been for the ticket. That money goes towards the same government that formed the law. Hence the Economic Inscentive, for the Government that is.
65 miles an hour on I215 is a speed limit to regulate speeds that are deemed unsafe for regular driver. Driving over the speed limit is considered dangerous and there for a threat to other drivers. Regulating the speed on highway reduces dangerous speeds.
Now coming up to the stop sign and NOT stoping may be dangerous in the same way. In that proceeding without stopping is dangerous going into coming traffic.
In any one of these situations there are loop holes in which you can still violate the law and the law will not persist. If you violate these laws with no law enforcment officer there to witness and/or issue a ticket. The affect is that you are still allowed to commit the violation however you are not getting penalized for it.
