Accident Tax?
June 20th, 2009 by CindyI happened to be watching CNN the other night when they ran a real interesting story on of all things-an “Accident Tax”
What IS an accident tax? It gives police and fire departments in certain states the right to send you a bill for their services-in other words if and when you get into an accident-you could receive a “bill for services” from a municipal police and fire department.
THIS TAX APPARENTLY TARGETS OUT OF TOWN LICENSED DRIVERS!!
Now there is a video with this article that links you to CNN. In their report-It does show Connecticut being one of the 25 or so states that does allow municipalities to enact an accident tax. I don’t think Cheshire has one-but MAYBE I HAVE GIVEN THEM AN IDEA TO RAISE MONEY!!
THERE YOU GO CHESHIRE-I DEFINITELY WOULD ENACT THIS TAX AND THEN POUR MOTOR OIL ON RT. 10 in the summer and water in the winter so there would be a lot of crashes-BOY WE WOULD BE RAKING IN THE REVENUE THEN!!
I can’t find out what municipalities if any in Connecticut have this “crash tax” if you will, on the books-but can you imagine-you know some people will probably drive without licenses if they feel threatened by this stupid law!!
You wonder where some peoples brains are!! We are having enough problems keeping unlicensed uninsured motorists off of the roads-THIS WILL JUST ADD TO THE PROBLEM!!
