All of those examples would be reduced/eliminated by better judgement on the part of the individual. Clearly, making it a crime didn't stop the action.

Oh B.S., the two things have nothing to do with each other. MA, CT, and NY have all declared states of emergency to free up resources for the storm. As a first responder, I find it hard to believe that you don't believe in any laws concerning public safety. I can relate to my brother in law who has repeatedly arrived at car wreck scenes and had to be the one to help extracate bodies because someone thought that they didn't like the oppressive government telling them that that couldn't drive drunk or that they didnt need to wear seat belts. I really find it hard to believe that you actually think it's ok to over and over again pull dead teenagers out of wrecked cars because they thought it was ok to do 90 down some back road.
If you really think that public safety is a bunch of BS, then you're in the wrong business.

Now with that said I FULLY support increased penalties for the individuals that create bigger problems by their actions.

What I am talking about is say you go out and do something "stupid" during this storm, you should be held fully accountable for your actions. So the Gov should have said "this is a really bad storm and we strongly suggest people don't go out unless they have to". Then if someone is out just messing around and causes a problem that SINGLE person should be responsible for their action.
It is like burning. Say you are burning in the spring, with a good fire break, water on hand, no wind, a small pile and you have done everything reasonable to have a safe burn and it gets away. Yes you can still be liable for costs and damage. Now say you are burning, it is August, there is a mild wind, no fire break, and you torch off a huge pile and it gets away. You SHOULD be held fully responsible for it.
So if you do not agree with holding an individual responsible for there actions do you believe that the group should be responsible for individual actions?
I do not know where you got that from. I have always believed in personal responsibility.
As for school zones..its depends. When kids are around sure...doubled fines is fine in my book. But still fine someone or double the fines when school is out and no one is around? Nope, I think it would be all about control and revenue at that point.
When school is let out at say 3pm and even all teachers are gone by 5pm why should a person be fined or the fine doubled up to 7pm?
Should doubled fines be imposed on someone for not going 20mph by a school playground on Sunday when no one is around?
There are more reasons that I do not FULLY believe in fines and the doubling of the fines. Just my .02 opinion.
Considering that the SCOTUS has ruled that police and first responders have NO OBLIGATION to protect citizens, your thesis makes no sense.Oh B.S., the two things have nothing to do with each other.
