Unlicensed Means You're Deadlier

Sweet! You and St. Paul with your one sentence paragraphs...

I am unworthy of that company.

My thoughts exactly! This is all just bullsh!t hyperbole that seeks to mask the real problem of 20-50 Million Illegal Aliens who have invaded our country and subjected it to massive crime, disease, and depletion of our social resources as well has presenting the problem of what to do about unlicensed, uninsured criminals of a larger nature.

THE most important car insurance a person can own is ‘uninsured motorist insurance’.

In Florida they had to pass a law forcing insurance companies to inform potential customers it was available. If an uninsured driver hits you and causes you to miss work - your insurance will NOT cover your wages unless you have uninsured motorist. There's other benefits too - check with your agent.

It's cheaper than collision - add it today - protect your family.

Uninsured motorist protection in Florida is also misleading. Many insureds believe it means if they are hit by someone without insurance, they are covered. That is untrue. If you do not have collision coverage, your uninsured motorist coverage won't help.....it's medical coverage.......not property coverage. If you have medical insurance you really don't need UM; after your PIP pays (80% up to 10,000), your medical bills will be paid by your health insurance.

Unlicensed drivers are nearly three times likelier than licensed drivers to cause a fatal crash in California.

Does that mean that out of every 4 fatal crashes, 3 are caused by unlicensed drivers?

Or does it mean that members of the presumably smaller group of unlicensed drivers are three times as likely to cause a fatal accident as members of the group of licensed drivers?

If it is the latter, then I wonder if the statistic is accurate because it must be difficult to know exactly how many unlicensed drivers there are.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

"Unlicensed" = "Illegal"

Can't say that though.

[familyop]

"Unlicensed Means You're Deadlier" only if law abiding drivers are licensed.

Give the judges more discretion to keep more people in dungeons longer for all kinds of regulatory excuses. Continue the madness of fascism and corruption (see untouchables). See what happens before long (see default process, smaller and weaker government, working class cohesion ahead).

As for bad headlines and writers not getting to the point soon enough, too bad. Wanna solve the problem? Fence off California and New York. Secede them.

Neah.
If the guy is licensed but doesn’t have the license, impound the car and he can get it out impound on presenting the license and paying the fine.

If the guy is unlicensed, confiscate the car. He NEVER gets it back.

We have to keep hearing that America will soon be a “minority country” when this is being engineered through illegal immigration to bring about a leftist democrat takeover.

Already done. The Obama/Daley/Emmanuel machine in Chicago has scores of thousands of illegals organized and voting, they've got a lock on the State of Illinois. Obama took that act national this last year -- I've seen claims, not documented fully (if there were, indictments would ensue, right?), that Obama stole as many as 80 electoral votes using dead, moved, or illegal-immigrant votes. I don't know how true it is, but I have a bad feeling it may be.
