Report: Motorists file class action suit against Florida toll road for... taking hostages? (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/23/report-motorists-file-class-action-suit-against-florida-toll-ro/)
You may have heard about this already as it was a story a few months back but I just heard about it this morning.
The Florida man who uncovered a government scheme to extract personal information from motorists at toll booths has also discovered the state is not using the information for the reason it claims.
As WND reported, Joel Chandler noticed that Florida toll workers were detaining – he says illegally – motorists who paid tolls with $20, $50 and $100 bills until they divulged personal information that was then logged in a state database.
Chandler, who tested multiple toll booths with larger bills and filmed the encounters, told WND that the information collected on the "Bill Detection Reports" was inconsistent: sometimes – but not always – including the make and model of vehicle, the driver's name, sex, race, address, phone number, physical description and driver's license number.

The Feds, the States, the Counties and town governments - all out of control to one degree or another.

I dunno. Seems like the Florida Tollbooths are the perfect place to launder dirty drug money.

@BigAlSouth: I don't know. Seems to me that one would have to do a whole lot of traveling to launder much. There are easier ways. I would think. ::saywhat::
