Entitlement Watch: Bob Duff’s Left on Red for Legislators.
State Senator Bob Duff spent the Friday of the Ritter Big East Break in his hometown of Norwalk. The Democrat, a source reports, has a notorious local reputation for ignoring red lights.
On Friday at noon, a local driver who has witnessed Duff flouting the law in the past, saw the Senate majority leader at it again. All the ingredients were there at the intersection of Delaware Avenue and Main Street: red light, traffic, white Subaru with legislative license plate, and the privileged driver.
A driver nearby thought if the past is any predictor of future performance, Duff was about to do it again. The driver aimed his phone and recorded Duff ignoring the traffic signal and turning left. What were the chances? Close to a sure thing.
Your instincts are right, Daily Ructions readers. The dog in the backseat seems more alert to the surroundings than the driver does.
