Typical California BS the state is broke due to all of the Social Programs especially for illegals and want to find a way to gouge people with money to pay for any and everything .
I recall a news program "perhaps 60 minutes" years ago where a older retired couple vacationing through the state in their Winnebago and a pull behind car on a trailer for when they were at campgrounds .
The Car had a blow out that eventually the tire shredded off of the wheel .
They were literally on the side of a winding mountain on a 2 lane road going downhill and had to travel several miles until they reached a place to pull over off of the road .
The state was suing them for millions because they claimed the metal wheel on the ground threw sparks into the brush and caused a forest fire and the state of California was calling it negligence .
If they had stopped sooner to change the tire they would have caused an accident with someone coming down the mountain and around a blind curve and probably gotten killed and caused the death of any driver that would have hit them and perhaps that of any oncoming drivers .
