Dickhead New Jersey Town To Charge $200 Tickets For Driving Through During Rush Hour
(CNN)A New Jersey suburb is getting tired of out-of-towners using navigation apps that send them through its narrow side streets on their way to and from the George Washington Bridge.
Its solution? Hitting nonresidents with a $200 fine during rush hour.
The borough of Leonia, just west of New York City, says it plans to prohibit outsiders from using 60 public roads between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. and between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m., beginning January 22.

Yeah good luck with that, you tyrants. Rush hour isn’t a thing you can just opt out of; it’s a mandatory part of living near a metropolitan area. I’m sorry that it makes it difficult to get out of your pristine neighborhood weekday mornings but honestly, cry us a fucking river. Roads are roads, and shortcuts are shortcuts, you cowards. My tiny town in Vermont has a rush hour, sure it takes fifteen minutes to get through it but for a place that rarely sees two cars on the road at the same time that’s a huge deal.
You want no rush hour? Move! Go to Alaska! Go full Into The Wild and spend the rest of your days eating flowers in the back of a school bus. Either do that or shut the fuck up about rush hour and your two hundred dollar fines,it’s ridiculous and unbecoming. Such a woe is me move. Nobody likes traffic, but it’s going to be there forever! Sorry! Until zombies, the plague, global warming, or a nuclear holocaust wipe us out, you will experience metropolitan rush hour for the rest of your miserable lives. There’s no time like the present to get used to it.
