very impressive display of small gov from our legislators.

Some of these seem like pretty decent changes such as:
However, I have a hard time believing 551 laws needed to be added to the already filled books.

quote:
School Zone Cell Phone Ban: Motorists are now prohibited from using any type of hand held wireless communications device while traveling through schools zones during posted hours. The law includes use of a cellular/wireless device for engaging in a voice call, accessing, reading, or posting to a social networking site, and/or writing, sending, or reading a text-based communication. The school zone cell phone ban does not apply if the device is being used to report an emergency, is being used in a hands-free manner, or while the vehicle is lawfully parked. Upon first violation of the school zone ban the fine is $175, subsequent violations can be up to $500, and if a crash occurs during the time of the violation, fines can be increased.
quote:
Six Year Driver’s License Renewal: The renewal period for Louisiana driver's licenses has been extended from four years to six years with a fee increase to cover the extension of the renewal period. Fee increases vary by class of license, area of residence, and age of license applicant.

Vehicle Inspections Can be Conducted in Rain: Another amendment added to the LA inspection sticker requirements changes an old requirement that vehicle inspections stations could not inspect vehicles on rainy days. This new amendment allows vehicles to be inspected when it is raining if the conditions are safe and the vehicle can accurately be checked.
However, I have a hard time believing 551 laws needed to be added to the already filled books.

religious nuts probably came up with half of them. FWIW WAFB sucks at links because their link to a complete list doesn't work.

I did not even realize there are 551 things that I can't do.

You're probably doing something illegal right now.

dumb that they couldn't be checked in the rain before or dumb that they are allowing that now?
The place that is by my apartment is like a drive through garage so weather should have no effect on inspections.
