Fine for creating a wake: $27,500

It has been a rule for ever that a Capt. of a vessel is responsible for any and all damage caused by his or her boat. That is law. Bout time you are responsible for your actions "JK" wrote in message ... See link below. (FL. msnbc news) http://www.msnbc.com/local/wbbh/ifyourefinc.asp JK Damn! It is a concrete bridge. Shame on the locals and the state for letting it get in such deplorable condition that the wake from a 21' boat would cause it to come down. Boaters should sue the state for letting the bridge become a hazard that might fall down. There are highway funds raised in every state via the gas tax. Some like here in California steal it for the general fund via an IOU. Reminds me of the jury on the SE that awarded the state $69 million for lost oil drilling revenues from Exxon and then added $111 billion in punitive damages. One of the jurors said a major reason they added the huge punitive damage award was because the state was in bad financial straights. More tossing of personal responsibility out the window. State overspends and so a jury figures they can screw a corporation. Maybe it was Harry on the Jury. Considering the fraud and thievery perpetrated upon the public by the energy companies and many other corporations, a bit of payback from time to time only begins to equalize the outrages. -- Email sent to is never read. Well, lets fine the Union pension funds a $87 billion to pay for the Iraq effort. The Union pension funds were major players in after hour mutual fund trading. They screwed the rest of the people in the pension fund, lets screw them! |
