So you've got 600 pounds of marijuana in the back of a rental truck. You are taking the drugs, which are worth an estimated $1 million on the street, from New York back home to New Jersey. You can take the tunnel or the lovely George Washington Bridge. Since the bridge is such a looker the choice is obvs, right? You choose the GWB. At least that's what 23-year-old Shawn Chance did early yesterday morning. The only problem was that Mr. Chance wasn't very lucky yesterday, or at least didn't have his reading glasses on. Though trucks are required to go on the upper level he instead drove on the lower one. When cops pulled him over they found 11 crates stuffed with sweet mary jane, making it the biggest bust at a Port Authority crossing this year.
The moral of the story? If you going to smuggle drugs across state lines the least you can do is respect the rules of the road.

poor Mr. Chance. his future is ruined... unless he writes a book.
um, what's gonna happen to all that pot?
It’ll probably go into evidence until his trial, then into the incinerator.
Sniff* :’-(
Incinerator? Won't that be a crazy contact high?
True. Imagine having a clam bake next to one of those.
Law Enforcement gets to have all the fun.
In California they used to burn seized marijuana out in the open. They stopped after an incident where several officers and people nearby became overcome by purple haze. Lucky bastards.
Ehh I'm sure they do it in a way that eliminates the smoke given off when it burns. Bunch of Kill-joys
Wow, the cops really got rid of a menace to society. It's weed, a drug scientists have repeatedly said is about as dangerous and addictive as bubble gum. What a waste of resources, and what a terrible reason to lock up someone forever.
