Fake or myth laws

  • Matching The “Flow Of Traffic” Is not A Valid Excuse For Speeding traffic-on-interstate While driving too slowly can cause traffic buildup or even accidents, the general concept of “going with the flow” of traffic isn’t going to get you out of a speeding ticket. That age-old “everyone was doing it” excuse doesn’t change the laws surrounding speed limits. You can try to use it as an excuse, but most cops won’t care
  • Illegal To Drive With Interior Lights On
