I was 18, had a 1942 45" chopper, extended front end, suicide shift, owned the bike for a couple days; no way was I going to pass the test with that. This chick I worked with had her boyfriend lend me his little Honda or Yamaha, don't recall, probably a 125 or something like that. They sent me out back on a cul-de-sac to wait for the guy that would test me (I heard it was figure 8's each way with feet on pegs). It took the guy a while to get there and I had only ridden it a couple miles to the DMV, so I decided to play with it; doing wheelies up the street when the tester came out. He just signed me off and told me to go in and get my license.

Next argument?

Wait? I think I've got it. Now they can't get down to the DMV to get the free ID because they have no transportation! Genius!

Voting periods; total bullshit. If time is an issue, go with absentee ballots.

It is dumb. They aren't going to save any money and likely will cost more with the extended hours and locations. It makes no sense other than to try to discourage some voters.
Or mail it in.

So, what is the cutoff line?

Every time I have visited a polling station they sure as hell lined my name out when I signed in.
