      This law will just allow Texas women from traveling while pregnant. This just first step because they have no way to know where you’re going and damn sure should have any right to know if you’re pregnant or not.

          Travelling out of state?

          Police: “You’re only 50 miles from the state line so you must be travelling out of state.”

          Showing “signs” of pregnancy?

          “Whelp, you’re obviously very upset about something right now and hormonal imbalance is a part of pregnancy so you must be pregnant.”

          Now a pig can say they have probable cause that you are committing a crime and can detain you. So ya, no driving while pregnant.

              I mean it’s clearly a typo on OPs part. I’m sure you think it’s funny but they make a very real and scary point.

                Sometimes I literally can’t tell if a comment means one thing or its opposite. After re reading it several times yeah you’re probably right

      I just listened to that whole video for my second hour of working from home. Thanks!

      I mean, I’d seen something like it before…but god damn…that’s a video to watch at least every six months until it’s intuitive.
