Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark said Saturday that she supports granting drivers licenses to undocumented immigrants, becoming the second city prosecutor to back the measure.
Brooklyn DA Eric Gonzalez has also supported the bill.
Government should encourage people to comply, rather than standing back and hoping people violate the law so they can be arrested, she said at an Albany Conference.

A wall along the Mexican border would encourage compliance.
Sending large numbers of illegal aliens back would also encourage compliance.
What could go wrong?
Avoid driving in NYC. Good luck getting paid by an auto insurance company if your car is hit by another car driven by an undocumented immigrant.
Why? So the cops can shoot at them if they reach for their wallet for their drivers license?
California has given away drivers licenses, so Illegals can vote—later to refuse jury duty—because they are Illegals!
This DA is totally ignorant of the law because she said that the illegals needed drivers licenses so that they comply with the law and not give the police a reason to arrest them for VIOLATING IT.
Stupid Bitch. They have already violated it by being here illegally. I guess in NY City, violating federal laws don’t count.
This woman should be disbarred for her sheer stupidity and malfeasance of office.
Another DeBlasio Marxist ahole wrecking the Big Apple.
Unfortunately I have to drive into NYC.
I dread that drive initially. Now I triple fear it considering the legal pot heads, texters and now, illegals.
Government should encourage people to comply”

Yes, by deporting ILLEGAL ALIENS, not by encouraging them.
I want to add, there are TOO MANY WOMEN in the government. When there are too many women in one area and they do stupid things.
They’ve been doing this for years. They’re just openly doing it!

It’s not an undocumented immigrant.. It’s an Illegal Alien!
I wonder what would happen if the insurance industry demanded citizenship papers of people who want to buy auto insurance, or else they WOULDN’T COVER THEM at all, including ANYONE HIT BY THEM?
This would make legal citizens with auto insurance crap in their pants and demand that illegals NOT GET DRIVERS LICENSES because they would be the victims of their accidents and have to pay for it. Any that got fake licenses would be deported immediately for possession of a fake government document, no slack given.
Of course NYC won’t do this, but the insurance industry can demand that it be done, or else they will not issue car-insurance policies to anyone in the city, and even pull their businesses out of there.
Let the innocent legal people revolt for once instead of acquiescing in this leftist crap. Otherwise, they can suffer the consequences of their own cowardice.
Where do you have to go in NYC? The quality of driving, while lousy, does vary widely from borough to borough. Driving in Manhattan is near impossible. You can actually take 6 lights to go 1 single block, the traffic is that bad. In the outer boroughs, you can drive, but it's going to be mostly a conga line of bumper to bumper, at least 8-10 cars. If there's a Chinese driver at the head of the conga line, expect to miss just about every light, because they generally drive about 19 mph---I've clocked them. Parking is virtually impossible in Manhattan, unless you pull into a parking garage, and then don't bet on it. Parking in the outer boroughs is extremely difficult, varies by the neighborhood, and watch out! They are now reducing the time on parking meters, so you only get 13 minutes per quarter instead of 15 minutes. There are streets subject to "alternate days", meaning on certain days of the week, ostensibly to allow street cleaning (but mainly to write tickets as a cash cow), you can't park on a given side of the street during certain hours. If you are found by the meter maid (and they start trolling for violators even before the delineated time) on the wrong side of the street during those hours on those days, you get a whopping big parking ticket.

If they are “undocumented” how can the govt know who they are creating a govt document for? Is the govt going to be in the business of creating fake docs now?
I have never driven in NYC. I can not fathom a reason to even own a vehicle there.

Great idea! It would save the insurance companies from having to pay victims of the illegals (which is surely more than the premiums they get from the illegals)!
Clark’s a fool.
NYS needs warm bodies. With so many taxpayers and jobs fleeing the state, Albany has to get residents from somewhere. It’s all about the census, folks.
