NY just passed a new law to protect kids. Now it is a felon, to
drive
DWI/DUI with children 15 years of age or less on board.

That ought to help save lives!

You object to having a legal requirement to drive sober??

Yes.

Boy..if this is you Waylon...you're really out to lunch here.
Maybe you should volunteer some time in a major trauma center in
Atlanta.

Don. I'll vouch for him, II know this guy. he lives in an adjacent
county of mine. only about 40 mi. away. I guarantee you, he's not
Waylon.

I think I know what his point is, but I won't go into it. it's no
biggie.

Uh oh. You belong to a church group together or do your kids play
baseball against one another?

Both.

I try to be a person of reason, Don. but well, it's been a proven
point that you don't need a license to be able to drive a car.

I'll try to convey my views but theres a chance I'll be misconstrued.

but I believe there should be stiff penalties for DUI/DWI, and I
believe there should be insurance on the vehicle, And it is proper to
have current tags on the auto's plates. But really what good is a
"drivers license?" except of ID purposes?Does a drivers license prove
you are able to drive a car? Not really. I know of people who have a
license in good standing and are horrible behind the wheel. And
there's a lot of people with revoked or suspended licenses who
continually drive.

So, really, what good does a drivers license do?

************************************************** **********

Around here, they still call driving a 'privlege', and I would hope that the
license showes that the driver had the skill/knowledge to pass the
requirements at one time.
Maybe there should be re-tests every 5-10 years...at least for those 60 &
over.
This comes up every time someone in their '80s kills a younger person in a
traffic 'accident'. Here in the city that usually means a vehicle/pedestrian
encounter as often as not with the victim in a crosswalk.

Don't you have any laws up there that prohibit such activities?

True, Don. Yes it is a 'privlege' as you say. But that same privlidge"
is only for the law abiding citizen.

I'm amazed here at how many people have lost their license to DUI etc,
and have had multiple offenses, yet they still drive.

Lately though, the counties have been not just impounding but
confiscating vehicles that belong to the offenders, though.

I would hope that could be more of a deturant to DUI offenders to
think that they might lose more than a slap and a fine.
