I mean, really...by now, we were *all* supposed to be commuting in helicopters, weren't we?

Personally, I save the use of my 'copter for things like invading small countries or bar hopping (hard to get pulled over for a DUI in a helicopter!).

How many times would you have paid $75 to avoid a traffic jam?

I don't think you need to get pulled over. If you're drunk and flying a helicopter, I think the whole problem takes care of itself. Those things aren't easy to fly!

If you have enough money to own and operate a helicopter, I'd bet the $75 fine per landing in your yard is nothing. Its probably cheaper than the airport and hanger fees!
