I saw an article in the local paper about a new law in Ohio. The governor recently signed a law outlawing Mayors courts from villages under 100 people. New Rome Ohio has around 60 residents, yet they were pocketing $400,000 per year from unsuspecting motorists. The famous traffic light has been removed, as there was acutally not enough traffic volume to justify it. It was so bad, that a comprehensive website was set up to document it. Here is the link if interested.
