BELLEVUE, Wash. – You forgot to buckle up, dummy! A commuter who put a homemade dummy in the passenger seat to sneak into the car pool lane was caught Wednesday near Seattle. But it wasn't because a cop realized the passenger was fake. Instead, the State Patrol trooper noticed the dangling belt buckle on the passenger side and suspected a seat belt violation.

Patrol spokeswoman Christina Martin told The Herald of Everett that the driver acknowledged trying to beat traffic by using the HOV lane.

He created his passenger by draping a rain jacket over plastic piping, topping it off with a Halloween mask of Gandalf, the "Lord of the Rings" wizard, a beard and a baseball cap.

The trooper issued a $124 ticket and confiscated the dummy.

LOL yeah

Why exactly was the dummy taken away?

This story is strange, for sure, but what warranted it to be confiscated?

They took away the dummy so he couldn't use it to sneak into the HOV lane again. Another words if this guy is going to be a repeat offender he's going to have to start over from scratch and build a new dummy.

Sounds like a product Billy Mays would endorse - or the title of a new AH-nold flick. :rofl: Or maybe the Governator's movie tie-ins would be manufactured by Billy Mays. :brent Imagine the possibilities!!

I could never understand why the law would want a front seat passenger in a car bucked up too. I can understand the driver, though.

somewhere I hear Fred Sanford saying:

"YOU BIG DUMMY!"
:D

Yea down here in PA, it's the law that you are to be buckled up in a car but it's perfectly legal for you to ride a motorcycle without a helmet. Some laws just don't make any sense. lol

I never did understand why helmets are not mandatory in some states (like my home state of Ohio). You're right, Sonny, they don't make sense at all. :crazy:

My grandma had a close friend who used to put a dummy in front seat when she took long road trips so people wouldn't think she was traveling alone. But I agree this guy is dumb to use dummy just for the carpool lane.

If they ever make a movie about this they could call it "Dumb and Dummy(er)".

Paris and anyone who was stupid enough to waste money seeing the flick (and judging from the box office returns, it wasn't too many). Which one is dumber is open to debate. :lol:
