Drive along this winding highway and marvel at the spectacular scenery of the Jinkou Grand Canyon in Sichuan, one of China's 10 most beautiful canyons. Flanked by towering cliffs, the canyon reaches a maximum depth of 2,600 meters and narrows to just 70 meters at its narrowest point.
NTSA CAMERAS INSTANT FINES ARE ILLEGAL
Our judicial system especially the criminal system is underpinned in due process. Before one is fined, one has to be proven guilty. Traffic laws are criminal in nature.
To be found guilty in a criminal process, two elements must be proved: That one had a criminal intent (mens rea) & that one committed the criminal act (actus reus).
To issue an instant fine to a car owner is wrong on many levels. It presupposes the following:
1. That the driver at the material time is also the owner of the car which is not generally true.
2. That the driver knowingly broke the law which again isn’t true all the time. It could be a medical issue.
If the driver isn’t the owner, then to fine the owner is completely unconstitutional as there is no transferred malice in traffic laws. If the driver who violates traffic law isn’t the owner, then his crime can’t be transferred to the owner.
NTSA Camera instant fines is a noble idea but without constitutional & legal foundation. It is executive irrational exuberance.
@KhalifKairo Congratulations Kairo. Your public story is a motivation for the young lads who are willing to learn. Falling and picking yourself, overcoming adversity. Keep going.
The aid industry raises money by showing the world images of African children with flies in their eyes and swollen bellies.
That money is supposed to help us.
But those images do something else too. They plant a belief.
One of my employees, Yahara, told me she grew up thinking Africans were inferior because every magazine showed people like her looking pathetic while the world "saved" them.
Aid didn't just fail to fix poverty. It taught an entire generation of Africans to feel small.
@magattew Exactly. The West should stop treating Africa like it desperately needs their help. This is patronizing nonsense.
Frankly, my observation is that the average happiness in a village in Africa is higher than the average happiness in Beverly Hills!
He calls it Geopolitical Chess
Is Kenya forging forwards on the global arena or neocolonialism? Will the benefits be real?

This guy just built a driver’s drowsiness detection software using Python. The software detects when a driver is sleepy or distracted and immediately triggers an alarm to wake them up. He also integrated a voice system that speaks to the driver as an additional alert.
The system allows the driver’s company to monitor the driver’s activity, and a report is sent to the company whenever the driver appears sleepy or distracted.
