On this Father's Day, I am writing to share my experience living, working, and raising a family without a driver's license. I have three children, two of whom go to Dover public schools, and my eldest daughter goes to the local community college. All three of them have trouble getting to school, urgent appointments, and participating in extracurricular activities because my wife nor I have access to a state-issued driver's license in New Jersey to drive them because of our immigration status.
We migrated to the United States from Columbia three years ago. We lived very well off there with our own house and car. Our children went to private schools. However, because of how well we were doing, I started to receive death threats, and we were forced to leave everything behind. I feared for my life and my wife and childrens well-being. If anything were to happen to me, they would struggle to survive. Going back is not an option for my family or me. Now we live in a small blue-collar Northern New Jersey town. It is a much different life than the one I use to live, but I am no longer facing death threats. To be able to get to work, I commute to two different towns to get to my second job. Its a long commute but it would be impossible without driving because there is no public transportation that could take me there.
Six months ago, heading home from work one night, I was pulled over for not having my lights on. When the officer asked for my license, I could only show him my Colombian drivers license. I didnt know if I would be handed over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement that night, or even have a chance to say goodbye...

Oh, come on, even crimillegals know better than to drive at night with their lights off. This is just another very poor excuse for msm lies.
I’m just wondering if this dude really is on the run is it because he was involved in the drug trade? In his entire country he can’t return anywhere there without being killed - because he was successful?
tsk, tsk , tsk, do you think he wrote that ? /s
We migrated to the United States
B*LLSH&T, You Sneaked in under the cover of darkness, My Wife Migrated here and has a Green Card!!
Every one of them is here illegally they are taking advantage of everything, schools, hospitals, he says his life is saved by being here, he drives illegally without lights at night -
And the bastard is complaining that he can’t drive his kids to a Jersey beach vacation. There are buses for God’s sake. And we can’t throw this sob out?
THE ARTICLE SCREAMS DRUGS.
Because my wife nor I. so the wife does but you dont or what?
About 10% of American families don’t own a car. He can’t use public transportation or buses but he’s here illegally? This crap is crazy.
How did he buy car without a license
***********
You don’t have to have a drivers license to purchase
a vehicle but to drive it you do.
He broke the law by showing up.
He needs to be tried and, if found guilty, sentenced and DEPORTED.
His kids, too.
This is what Uber and taxis are for, really.
You didn't migrate you Jumped the Border.
Here's a thought Mr. Illegal. Stop complaining about life here in NJ. You are a criminal and should be arrested, deported and never again allowed in the USA.
Weird that they’ve been receiving death threats and then he goes and posts their faces like this.
“qualified resident” — what makes him qualified?
He came here illegally, he didnt migrate here.
Did you fire her? I would have. I just lost my legal Guatemalan housekeeper and hired a legal Mexican housekeeper. If one of them ever said something like that to me Id fire them.
