that #1 is an ass kicker, but a driver should know what a car pool actually is if they don't have the hybrid sticker!
How great is Vermont? Not only are we allowed to drive with wireless phones in our hands, we can shoot our guns with the other. Also, our seat belt law is a secondary offense, meaning you cannot be pulled over for no-seatbelt.
I think you have more driving laws than we have total laws.
