Kill a worker while driving - $7500, Pirate a DVD - $250,000

They need to word those signs better.

At first, I thought "Why would they pay you $7500 to kill/injure a worker?"
 
A $7500+ fine and 15 yrs in jail.

Sounds about right since it would be unintentional, but still considered man-slaughter. The fine is for the casket 😛

When a certain area becomes a "hot topic" for whatever reason, all the lawyers and politicians scramble around and start legislating. As a result, fines and such go up. Construction workers aren't a hot topic right now; if they were, you can bet those minimum penalties would go WAY up.

Yes because $7500 is all that would happen to you.

This thread is retarded.

They'd start at $7500 and go up from there. The DVD people would start at a quarter million and go down. End result, you're paying tens or hundreds of thousands+jail for the worker, and $3k or so for the DVD. The law is wierd...

There's been huge fines for copying movies for many years. Doesn't anyone read the FBI warning?

That's been at the beginning of every movie for as long as I can remember.
