Your traffic ticket "theory" looks extremely similar to a bunch of "words" to me, and I don't think I'm mistaken in saying that the "words" of the law are going to trump the "words" of Tower if I was crazy to enough to try your theory out. What you aren't picking up on is that when there is disagreement between how you think the law applies, and how the government, lawyers and judges think it applies, you are going to lose and they aren't even going to be interested in debating.

This reminds me of those crazy guys in the States with their "income tax is illegal!" websites, which purportedly explain just why it's illegal using references to state's rights and other stuff that just DOESN'T MATTER because they just don't get that the government makes the laws, the courts interpret the laws, the lawyers argue the laws, and JoeBob Grindlesnatch's involvement in the process is obeying the law or facing the consequences.
This is my point about words. They are the law. They are used by the law society, and are you saying you do not have the capability to use these words developed by this society in which they have rule over. Only they have the capability? Grab a law book and start to uncover it. I invite you to look up these meanings that I have mentioned yourself and then tell me what power you have with these words. It is all about understanding. Is it crazy to understand what the law words mean and use them as such?
