If you live in Illinois and your kids plan on skipping school, they may want to think again. Illinois Governor Blagojevich signed a law on Saturday linking the right to drive with school attendance.

When a dump truck backed into Curtis Gokey's car, he decided to sue the city for damages. Only thing is, he was the one driving the dump truck. But that minor detail didn't stop Gokey, a Lodi city employee, from filing a $3,600 claim for the December accident, even after admitting the crash was his fault.
