California Receiving $1. 5 Million to Fight Distracted Driving

Instead of sending another extravagant subsidy to the Golden State, the United States Department of Transportation should not be doling out taxpayer funds to programs that have little more merit than driving up the deficit while rewarding a few well-connected bureaucrats.

The state of California has not passed a balanced, on-time budget in at least a decade, without resorting to gimmicks and rosy projections more fantastic than factual.

Not California drivers, but the legislators in Sacramento have proven that they are the ones distracted, paying more attention to the will of the special interests funding their campaigns as opposed to the well-being of the state and her citizens, the growing majority of whom are tired of the business as usual waste which is eating away at public safety, private rights, and fiscal discipline.

The California political class is at the wheel driving the entire state over the cliff into unmitigating bankruptcy. Someone needs to teach them to head the helm of state without distractions.
