Judge: Fetuses do not count in carpool lanes
PHOENIX (AP) - A judge says an Arizona woman's argument that she was carrying a passenger in her womb doesn't hold up.
Candace Dickinson was fined 367 dollars for improperly using a carpool lane. But she said because she was carrying a fetus, she should be allowed to use the lane.
Motorists who use the lanes around Phoenix must carry at least one passenger during weekday rush hours.
A municipal judge says, "The law is meant to fill empty space in a vehicle."
The police sergeant who pulled her over says Dickinson's theory would force officers "to carry guns, radios and pregnancy testers."

I'll bet the same judge opposes abortion on the grounds that the fetus is a living human being.
