Speed Tax

This is going to hurt me for sure some time in the future but I’ll be damed if I can come up with a good reason against it.

SPRINGFIELD -- The cost of a speeding ticket in Illinois could increase to help pay for replacing old, rusting police cars. State Rep. Shane Cultra has proposed legislation to add a $5 fee for anyone who receives a ticket from the state police and is convicted for speeding.

The money raised would help the state police buy new cars.

You gotta pay to play.
