The state and local governments in CT desperately need to be overhauled and modernized.

If you see one they are most likely working on administrative bulls*it and are just trying to sit somewhere central to their patrol area so they can respond to a call within their assigned area quickly. For those whose areas are mainly highway, the priority is clearing disabled vehicles and accidents to prevent traffic jams and the additional fender benders those bring.

Don't drink and drive.
Don't do field sobriety checks.

So why is congress allowed to maintain their jobs after DUI’s but state reps aren’t?

Outside of holidays when they have extra staff on I would not expect much traffic enforcement. This is how it has been for nearly two decades now since the steep decline in officers began.

Just left work, turned left at a light as I had a green arrow to do so, another car comes FLYING in at full speed from my right without even slowing down at the intersection, then has the nerve to honk at ME when I hit the brakes to avoid a collision. Fucking idiots out there right now, I'm sure today's normalized binge drinking isn't helping.

Go a few times to just observe so you get the lay of the land and what cars are popular and how the bidding can go. Don’t buy the first time you go unless you have someone experienced with auctions with you.

Masking is done. It’s even been proven that they don’t work. My boss is double vaccinated and boosted and got Covid. She wore her mask everywhere. It’s time to move on and get back to normal.

My Dad did this a few times years ago , each car seemed like a good deal , drove fine for a few days then some issue or another . The car I decided to take from him the gas pedal got stuck , scariest shit ever until I learned to be on the ready and throw it in neutral 🤦🏻♀️.
But good luck

There's nothing like cracking a cold one on a road trip. The limit to drive is 0.08, why not let me sip and operate well under that margin.

If you can live in affluent area of CT you generally have PLENTY of choice in where to live given how much it costs.
CT is a pretty awful state to be young and entry level in if you work in the state. Not to say theres NO jobs, ive done it, but really, young people leave for more opportunity elsewhere if they can. And I say this with alot of love for CT. There's just not alot going on for a new generation entering the workforce and it's expensive.

Check out Canton Auto Exchange. Not sure what you’ll find in that price range though.

Alcohol should be banned at the capital. They absolutely should not be drinking while working, and if they want to celebrate after work , there's no shortage of places that serve alcohol. We can't have people whose judgements is impaired by alcohol writing laws and regulations. These people were also playing drinking games during the sandy hook gun law hearings. This has been going on too long.
