“Despite the successful numbers in Athens’ ordinance, critics maintain the new law unfairly targets illegal immigrants, who do not have the ability to obtain a driver license or insurance.”

They could surely get a driver's license and insurance back in their home countries. Maybe the problem is that they are not where they are supposed to be, not our laws.

I have lived overseas in countries where I could not obtain a driver's license. And you know what? I didn't drive!

We lived in Iran. Foreign nationals of many countries could drive there; however, if you hit someone you were responsible for the care of them and their family. If you killed someone, you supported the family period. I don’t know how long that support was to extend - seems like a long time, though. We didn’t drive; figured it was cheaper to hire a taxi.
