May Give Blood In Lieu Of Fine In Kentucky
In Payette county Kentucky those cited for minor traffic offenses may donate a pint of blood to the local bank instead of paying a ten dollar fine. Judge Robert Stephens says the program aims to cut accidents through voluntary donations and to bolster the Central Kentucky blood center supply. The option applies to pleas of guilty for fines of ten dollars plus costs, among about 1300 monthly cases, though a court cost of eighteen dollars and fifty cents remains.
