There should be a regulation in force already that all passengers in state-owned vehicles must buckle up, and the designated driver can’t start the vehicle until he/she verifies that all passengers are buckled up. It was that way in my federal workplace.

As I recall, a convoy of New Jersey cops were busted for speeding in Virginia during their return home from Katrina. They too, are above the law in NJ.

After the fact, the media all admitted that they knew McGreevy was gay. As did the cops.

its was known for many years in NJ. and the full story isn’t even out there.

Right now I have only one gripe with the NJSP and that is that they'll close rapidly in an unmarked car and then tailgate.

If you're in a hurry, fine. Just hit siren or flash some lights a hundred yards or so before you're on my ass.

I've never had the Penna Troopers do anything like that.

It's not a good public relations move for the NJSP.

Democraps don't get fined. The law doesn't apply to them. Will the trooper be forced to resign? Driving a government vehicle with a passenger in the right front seat and NOT WEARING A SEAT BELT?

Will Corslime sue the driver?

Didn't the State Police have a concerted effort a couple of years ago to make it a primary offense? Or was that only for others?

“The fact that Corzine wasn’t wearing his seatbelt has nothing to do with the fact that he’s a liberal. Most men I know in their 60s, regardless of their political affiliation just aren’t in the habit. I yell at my dad all the time for not wearing his.”

Is your Daddy a public official that needs to set an example? Is age the excuse NOT to set the example as a public official? How does one take Corzine seriously if he doesn’t follow LAWS for all people in the state of New Jersey?

[no dems]

Will he be fined?

Ohhhh. More than that. As soon as Al Sharpton is through with him he'll apologize and resign.

[NucSubs]

He fell about 2-3 feet into sand.

For real.

[gridlock]

I am no fan of Corzine, but I can’t fault him for this. I would much rather fault him for failing to cut spending.

Corzine was the third straight New Jersey governor in a row to break a leg while in office.
