Another way to look at it is that we are all in this together and have to follow the same rules rather than accept that money buys privilege. |

They should increase the fines for taxi, truck, and bus drivers that through red lights.
I've seen so many people almost get hit by one of those vehicles because they ignore the lights and just go |
