I’d let people drive w/o a license, and penalize them based on the driving infraction. Hit and run is for sure jailable, in my book. But license or not, some fraction of drivers run; and license or not, some who drive w/o a license are suprisingly accountable (on their own accord) for their actions. Just saying, I don’t think licensing makes a person competent or self-responsible.

True. Technically, driving faster than the posted speed limit is illegal to, but I often do it anyway... And some traffic lights were "dark" yellow when I went through them, too.

I see illegal aliens working on construction and they work like the dickens. I know several construction contractors and they tell me it's hard to get and keep skilled laborers; so many are drunks or on drugs and they just fail to show up some days--not so for Mexicans.

Still, we are faced with either enforcing our laws regardless of person or selectively (and always unfairly) enforcing them. THAT leads to tyranny.

In my case of speeding occasionally I know if a cop tickets me it was a fair bust.

Anyway, this is why we need to build the wall-that is, have proper, controlled and protected border--and do much, much more to stop visa overstays.

Right now the whole thing is like a cancer or puss-filled abscess that's likely to burst any moment and it won't be pretty.

Look to Europe and you'll see why. Those innocent French and Belgians didn't have to die if their elite leaders were more responsible.

What if you are not eligible to receive a driver’s license? Should you still drive?
