hmmm... How does one say 'hagwon' en espanole?

Quote:
Federal law requires that anyone with a commercial drivers license speak English well enough to talk with police. Authorities last year issued 25,230 tickets nationwide for violations.

...

the maximum fine of $500


25,230 x $500 = $12,615,000.00 That's a nice chunk of easy money taking advantage of Hispanic truckers.


Now I can see a trooper giving them the max if they learned their english from the CB radio. Just about every other word is the f-bomb.
