Boy, the painters are already here preparing the wall for the paint and are going to finish the job this afternoon or early evening. They are doing the sanding and waterproof caulking right now.
Geez Mike, send those guys up here, they seem super-efficient. I'd gladly spend $400 to get them to repaint my living room in a day.
@qbrozen, If they gave her about 50k on her trade in, they would owe us money, so I picked something more expensive. She would never drive something a large as a Continental.

Maybe lawyer up and make them pay your legal fees. Do you feel served and protected yet? It really is a make-work project, endless layers of red tape managed by people with zero accountability. I hope you don't have a special note at the bottom of your ticket. Of course, those in on the scam will just say that "life isn't fair" or a similar dodge.
A warrant? Probably a good reason to carry a copy of my previously mailed out letter with me. I'm debating what to do next. Will probably hand deliver to their drop box additional letters, one to the Court without jurisdiction that thinks it does have it, and one to the Court where i should be making an appointment to appear (as of 3/1/18 they require appointments to appear; no more walk-ins for arraignment!). Talk about bureaucracy!
My guess is they probably give you some months before putting out the all-points-bulletin warrant out for me.
I also don't want to pay my other citation fine that is coming due soon. I fear they will attribute that payment incorrectly to this new case, rather than the old settled one first. Most of my fears about the Traffic Courts come true, I'd say around 66%.
I will write the check specifically with case and citation reference numbers on it, but we all see how much attention to details the Courts give.

You know, I think a high percentage of them don't realize just how difficult it is to work with their kind and ilk on these cases.
A lot of them have the "blue shield" of ticket immunity after all. They don't have to deal with the layers of incompetence.
For instance, I was talking to an Officer a few years ago who contacted the court on my behalf to I think dismiss his "fix-it ticket." He mentioned how difficult it was to get a hold of someone at the Court. I told him "welcome to my world, it's always like that." I asked if he didn't have a "special" number that got picked up quicker for law enforcement. Don't recall an answer to that, but I'm guessing there is a number "insiders" can call. Apparently this Sheriff wasn't in on the 411.
If people that work there only knew how difficult it is to work with them!! Perhaps they don't care. Perhaps a large percentage of the public is nasty with them (wouldn't you be a bit frustrated waiting in line for hours to be "served and protected?")

The problem is that the visibility in the newer cars is less than satisfactory.
Especially difficult to see rearward with the high slope on the rear windows. I saw an E400 in black that is the new style go past me in Lowe's parking today. Nice car. I noticed it because its headlight was out on the right side as it came toward me. Its rear window slopes a lot. Almost all cars have a definite slope for aerodynamics.
I had been sitting watching a lady with a Sonata or Optima (with a highly sloped rear window) trying to put a 4 x 8 piece of plywood into her car. I watched as she wheeled it to her car. At first she opened the rear doors and tried to put it in sideways. LOL The width of the car is NOT 8 feet, now matter what they say about the rear legroom!!!
Then she opened the trunk and moved some things, then went to the rear doors and put the seats down. I can't believe the rear trunk opening is 48" across and is going to let her slide 8 feet of plywood into the maw of the trunk and rear seat space. Just sayin'. I had to leave because my wife came out of the Lowes with more pansies. I really wanted to see how much more she tried to make the geometry work...
Maybe tie it on the roof?

That's not a good reason to stop it, as it wasn't when people were smashing steam machines installed in the manufactures to do lifting.
True but just think how many were killed in steam explosions before that technology was perfected. I'm not really a Luddite just cautious.
I am cautious too....no diesel or e-cars until it has proven to be better than good old gasoline. But, I can see the day when self driving cars will be safer. Two biggest causes of accidents will be eliminated.....self drivers don't get distracted (by cell phones, texting or eating pizza), and they don't DUI.
If they can refine them a little more...they will be safer. Safer than the young lady behind me the other day yacking on her cell phone (heavy slow moving traffic) and talking to her passengers...and not watching what was happening in front of her.
Maybe they can sentence people like that to self drivers like they require interlock devices on drinking drivers.

Not a bad idea! The programming and sensors already appear to be superior to the lowest common denominator drivers out there.

the sweet spot seems to me to be driver required cars, with the in case of emergency nanny overrides. For the lowest common denominator types. Yeah, the person behind me should be paying attention and not texting, but if they are distracted, I would prefer that their car would slam on the brakes as opposed to having the car end up in my trunk.
and Mike is right. Cars now have such terrible rear visibility now, that BU cams and cross path detection is a major help in parking lots. Sure, you can adjust side mirrors to cover on the road, but that doesn't help with pedestrians going behind you much.
The painters just left. They did a superb job - looks great. The caulking really made the bathrooms and the kitchen look great. Worth every penny of the $400 I paid them. They had 3 guys here - one did the painting, one did the guest bathroom and caulked the bathtub, and one did the caulking in the master bath and shower. They cleaned up and the apartment looks great.
A good friend has been working at a BMW dealership here in Louisville. Told him the type of car and price range we are looking at. Says he'll try to find a car for us. I'll try to hit him up for some sales stories. But I suspect not many at a Beamer dealership.
I think "don't care" is a big part of it on the administrative side. I think most cops do care, but those in the "justice system", well, maybe not so much. Remember the Lily Tomlin phone company commercial parody? That's probably a good representation.
No doubt dealing with nasty people can make one jaded, but I see that as an occupational hazard, one compensated for by bennies and pensions few in the private sector can ever dream of.

Traffic Citation Ticket & Traffic Court Story Time:
If you are as sensitive as a snowflake, and need a safe space when government is being criticized, please skip this post.
So the BS speeding ticket for 70 in a 55 that should be posted at 65. Remember I invoked VC 40502(b) to have my case adjudicated at the Country Seat, that court being closer to my place of work.
The legislature in their infinite wisdom put the word "UPON DEMAND" into that law, not "UPON REQUEST" and I believe for good reason, as the Courts seem to ignore and disregard some laws, while trying to enforce arbitrarily the laws they wish to enforce for revenue generation.
The Officer granted my request, if you recall the story. However, on the ticket, he clearly squiggled out the East County, and put the County Seat as the court venue I was to appear at. I signed to appear at the County Seat by 2/20/18.
I received a Courtesy Notice to incorrectly appear at East County (they ignored the citation, the squiggly marks clearly crossing-out that as a selection). It wasn't either or, it was only to be at the County Seat.
So now I have a Failure to Appear charge, which is laughable, since I never signed nor agreed to appear at the East County Court. How could I be charged with such a frivolous thing when if they bothered to look at a copy of the citation they'd see they don't have the evidence to convict!!!!!
They have a harrassing rude collection agency calling me two days in a row Thurs/Friday last week, but they've left me alone since then. Just received the first letter from them yesterday (other than the collections calls where they were argumentative, I hadn't received a single word about this).
The reason I don't appear at the County Seat is because if I did so I believe I'd have my time wasted, and be direct to go to the East County Court. They might not even have me on their books or share their files.
I need the East County court to correct this situation. I sent them a letter about all this on 2/6 or 2/7, and they ignored it.
Did the USPS magically lose this letter? If so, they are government incompetents too. If not, then the court misplaced my letter, and/or failed to respond.
This isn't my first rodeo. I know how this works. However, in my stubbornness, I don't feel I should have to pay extra for Certified Registered Return Receipt Mail (payments to the Government) when I am innocent of the charges, and intend to plead not guilty and get the charges dismissed. I also don't want to have to appear in person at the East County court, as it is a great inconvenience, a significantly longer drive, and from prior experiences, a significantly slower processing line (longer lines too).
In fact, when you call the East County Court, they only have phone hours for a few hours in the morning each day. Even when you call within those time frames, I was held on-hold for almost a full hour!
They don't answer the phone, they don't answer written correspondence, they have excessive lines, they are far away, and most importantly, I do not wish VC 40502(b) to be trampled upon, broken, and disrespected. I should never have to appear at the East County Court. They should just fix their mistakes (yes, plural mistakes now).
Geez, are they going to issue a warrant out for you?
A warrant? Probably a good reason to carry a copy of my previously mailed out letter with me. I'm debating what to do next. Will probably hand deliver to their drop box additional letters, one to the Court without jurisdiction that thinks it does have it, and one to the Court where i should be making an appointment to appear (as of 3/1/18 they require appointments to appear; no more walk-ins for arraignment!). Talk about bureaucracy!
My guess is they probably give you some months before putting out the all-points-bulletin warrant out for me.
I also don't want to pay my other citation fine that is coming due soon. I fear they will attribute that payment incorrectly to this new case, rather than the old settled one first. Most of my fears about the Traffic Courts come true, I'd say around 66%.
I will write the check specifically with case and citation reference numbers on it, but we all see how much attention to details the Courts give.
When the government or courts or anything is involved, pay the $4 for mail that requires a signature. Hard to prove you mailed it when it could have ended up on anyone's desk....and then trash can.

Pass the Silvercar location at MIA all the time and saw a silver Q5 there on Monday. It's right outside the rental garage, a very short walk.

Used to do a lot of work for them when I was an independent contractor and running around the state.

Seems to be the consensus. Only a half hour from the airport that time of night and from there it’s a few miles to the funeral location, which isn’t bad.

A lot of them have the "blue shield" of ticket immunity after all. They don't have to deal with the layers of incompetence.
For instance, I was talking to an Officer a few years ago who contacted the court on my behalf to I think dismiss his "fix-it ticket."
