It will be put to good use putting in lots more speed bumps and stupid roundabouts. After all, you wouldn't want people flying down your street at 70 mph as some stupid yuppie on my tiny street claimed people were doing when she was complaining to council for speed bumps. Bored yuppies with nothing better to do are ruining that city. Somebody should mobilize the illegals to vote. I bet their elected officials would do a better job since they probably have a better grasp on reality. Until then, I guess we can look forward to more bans on landscaping equipment.
