AN anti-biker bill has been voted into Florida law after State Representative Carlos Lopez-Cantera took a ride-along with local police last November.

The law comes into effect on October 1st, 2008 and will allow police to confiscate a motor vehicle if the rider is caught doing more than 30mph over the limit.

There will be further penalties imposed including jail sentences of five to ten years as well as suspended motorcycle licences for ten years.

The bill was originally introduced specifically against motorcycles but an amendment was made to include all vehicles.

This is just another example of an unconstitutional law that will be overturned by injunction on criminal appeal, or by civil class action, with refund of all money illegally seized. Bogus jailtime and lost income is usually compensated at $20,000 to $50,000 per year in Section 1983 civil rights cases.

It's a violation of Constitutional Equal Protection doctrine under the 14th Amendment to have a "law" that only applies to one group of citizens, with immunity for another group of citizens. Since this "law" originally only applied to bikers and not drivers, the law had to be changed. However, it's not enough to write that a law applies equally, it must also be enforced equally. I doubt the Florida law will be enforced against drivers, but then again, cops and gangsters in govt are greedy.

The 14th Amendment is the law that supposedly freed the slaves after the Civil War. Bikers are not slaves, no matter how badly the police state wants them to be.

Police are never prosecuted for speeding with their emergency lights and sirens turned off, which are required to be turned on before they can violate any traffic law. That's also an Equal Protection defense. So the Florida law can be defeated that way too, which is how I defend myself in every ticket case, by using the cop's in-car video to prove he violated many laws.

Virginia was forced to kill it's "law" demanding drivers pay $3,000 speeding tickets, and is now refunding all that money:

Virginia: Abuser Fees Officially Dead

The Virginia "law" for $3,000 tickets also violated Constitutional Equal Protection doctrine, since it only applied to Virginia residents. Visitors only paid the usual $10 to $150 tickets. Equal Protection means a law must apply the same to every person.

Both the Florida and Virginia laws certainly qualify as "cruel and unusual punishment", which is banned by the US Constitution and state constitutions. However, defendants are routinely "ticketed" for up to $100,000 in US courts. So the Florida law can be overturned on that issue.

"In 2005, FasTrak system overcharged at least 600 motorists crossing the Bay Bridge between San Francisco and Oakland because ACS, the company in charge of the program, allowed its laser scanning devices to become dirty. In most cases, when the toll transponders fail, customers have their credit card on file billed based on a photographic scan of their vehicle's license plate. This usually is not a problem unless the credit card expiration date arrives and the automatic billing function fails, or the scanner misreads the plate. When such problems occur, the tolling authority can impose fines of up to $93,000 as several Orange County FasTrak users learned."

California cops are now paid $200,000 salaries, while city govternments must file bankruptcy in federal court to stop payment on those contracts with police.

Most of those toll roads are owned for foreign corporations, that keep all the profit. Existing streets and highways are being given away to private corporations for toll roads. The King of Fascist Spain has already seized 7,000 miles of existing roads in Texas, for toll roads just to drive across town.

Foreign corporations are also now getting 90% to 100% of traffic ticket revenue in USA, by installing robocop spy scameras at redlights, and radar robocops on highways. Which is just another way to turn an existing road into a toll road.

Redflex is losing class actions all over USA, with all ticket revenue refunded and all cameras removed. Redflex and city councils are currently under federal criminal investigation for mail fraud in Lousiana. But Gangsta Govts still love robbing the sheeple at gunpoint, even when they get arrested as "terrorists" under the U.S.A.P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act, like NY prosecutor/governor Eliot Spitzer was forced to resign this month and facing 50 years in prison for white slavery.

[quote]"It is extremely easy to beat this type of ticket in court. Your easiest defense is to simply throw the ticket away. If it does not come with a return receipt that requires a signature, there is no proof that you actually got the ticket and they cannot prosecute you on that. What the legal system wants you to do is just send in the fine and not ask any questions. This can be a big money maker for some communities. One other form of defense to utilize on your behalf is the fact that when you are accused in court you must be faced by your accuser. Obviously the computer cannot appear in court as a defense method for the prosecution. Also, you do not have to identify yourself as the driver of the vehicle because it would violate your sixth amendment rights against self incrimination."

All bogus laws are null and void from their inception, as every court is forced to agree. But only when folks fight their tickets. If everyone fought their tickets, there would be no more tickets.

According to the Institute of Transportation Engineers and USDOT, speeding is SIX TIMES SAFER than driving a posted speed limit. Even lawyer Ralph Nader wrote that in his book, Unsafe at Any Speed: The Built-In Dangers of the American Automobile, that forced GM to switch to CV joints, sway bars and 4-wheel independent suspension on Vettes and Corvairs. Corvairs were rolling over at 30 mph.

"Those who do not assert their rights, have none."
-Maxim of Law, Blacks Law Dictionary

Warning: Signing a driver license contract, or signing a traffic citation contract, means you "voluntary" waivered your Constitutional rights. However, duress voids all contracts.

How to sign an adhesion contract without waivering your Constitutional and civil rights:

Uniform commerical Code

U.C.C. - ARTICLE 1- GENERAL PROVISIONS PART 2

§ 1-207. Performance or Acceptance Under Reservation of Rights.

(1) A party who with explicit reservation of rights performs or promises performance or assents to performance in a manner demanded or offered by the other party does not thereby prejudice the rights reserved. Such words as "without prejudice", "under protest" or the like are sufficient.

Your state probably has adopted similar language in its Commercial Law statutes.

SENATE BILL NO. 936

AN ACT To amend Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 47-1-207.

WHEREAS, The State of Tennessee has adopted revised Article 3 and revised Article 4 to the Uniform Commercial Code (Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 47, Chapters 3 and 4); and

SECTION 2. Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 47-1-207, is amended by deleting the existing language in its entirety and by substituting instead the following:

(1) A party who, with explicit reservation of rights, performs or promises performance or assents to performance in a manner demanded or offered by the other party does not thereby prejudice the rights reserved. Such words as "without prejudice", "under protest" or the like are sufficient.

Here's what Pastor Rick Strawcutter, a certified paralegal, says about traffic tickets:

This country is in such bad shape because people have no idea what's going on. 80% of all criminal cases start with the admissions and confesions of the defendant. You take out a tape recorder and you have about a 40% chance of walking away without a ticket. Use a tape recorder no matter what situation you are in. Sometimes I use the recorder hidden under my shirt sleeve, for business situations. We're not advocating that you take this out and 'hunt bears'. Let's go back to the scene of the "crime". If you don't have an audiotape recorder, you NEED a tape recorder. Under every circumstance, if you are living in the USA at this time, you need a tape recorder. Get one of these before you get a .38-SpecialThe law allows you to tape record your own conversations. What is said to you, and what you say, is your property, under the 4th Amendment to the US Constitution. You can use it on the sly. Most of the time, I have it turned on and out the window before the cop walks up. I just say, 'Hi, officer, how ya doin'?' The cop says, 'I need to see your driver license, registration and proof-of-insurance card.' I used to say, 'What's your 'probable cause' for stopping me?' But, quite frankly, if you have a valid driver license, you have a valid contract with the state, and you can't raise probable cause. If they ask for your license, you have to produce it. Next thing the cop's gonna do, is ask you a series of questions, designed to incriminate you. In response to EVERY question, you will answer, "I respectfully decline to answer that question." Nancy Reagan said, 'Just Say NO!' The right to Free Speech under the First Amendment to the Constitution is also the right NOT to speak. By the way, driving 92mph in a 55-zone is NOT a "crime". No one has been injured under the common law, thus no crime was committed. There are some people who worship government to such a degree, that this world system is a god to them. If you 'sin', you must pay to "absolve" the sin. Technically, you have not violated the law. CRIMINAL Law includes rape, robbery and murder. What a traffic ticket is, is a breach of contract. Your driver license is a 'voluntary' consent to a contract, where you agree to be regulated by the Motor Vehicle Code. The breach of contract is 'cured' by you paying money. In an area where the People refuse to be Sheeple, they can establish an awful lot of freedom and liberty. There are towns where a whole bunch of people don't even have license plates on their cars, or driver licenses. The courts just get constipated with people defending themselves pro se. In Arizona, the attorney general put out a directive to the state troopers: 'If a driver makes a Constitutional objection, just let 'em go. It's not worth it.' The judge will turn to the defendant and ask, 'Are you ready to proceed?' You will either say, 'Yes I am,' or you will do what I do and say, 'Your Honor, I have a procedural matter to take up with the court, before I'm ready to move forward. Your honor, I wish to challenge the jurisdiction of this court today, over this person, me, because I'm not a "licensed driver". I present my license as evidence. I've signed this "Without Prejudice UCC 1-207". Your Honor, I wish to travel on the roads and highways under my Constitutionally guaranteed right to travel. I don't wish to be in a regulated enterprise. I'm not engaged in trade, commerce or industry. I don't want a driver license. I want to travel as a constitutional right, not as a state licensed privilege. But these police over here insist, that if I don't have one of these things, that they're gonna pull me over from time to time, and hurt me if I don't have one of these little pieces of paper, and I don't want to be hurt. So, under duress and threat and coercion, I put my signature on there, but I made a specific reservation of right that I'm not a party to this contract. There may be people who willingly volunteer into this, but I'm not one of them. Therefore my signature is not valid here. It was obtained under threat and duress, and I am not a licensed driver.' Sign your driver license 'WITHOUT PREJUDICE' and/or '1-207-UCC'. You know, if the people just figured out that it's all about money - if the Sheeple stopped being sheared - there would be a whole lot more wool around. We're going to make no admissions or confessions at the scene. When I get to court, all I want to testify against me is that RADAR unit. When you get to court, the first thing you're gonna do is 'deny responsibility'. It's a CIVIL matter now, NOT a criminal matter, so you DON'T 'plead guilty'.... ETC

All traffic tickets are "easy" cases to win in court, much easier to win that "real" trials. Just do your homework, and defend your Constitutionally guaranteed rights, including your right to travel without an internal passport driver license contract. 50-million illegal aliens are not required to have driver licenses nor ID in USA, especially in Florida.

"There is no speed limit on the Autobahn. Before pulling into the left lane to pass, check the rear view mirror very carefully as far back as you can see. Cars traveling at 160-180 km per hour approach suddenly, so when passing (überholen), do so quickly and then quickly return to the right lane. WARNING: Do NOT admit any guilt. Do NOT sign anything unless you know exactly what you are signing."
