Under the proposed new law, anyone convicted of motor vehicle theft would automatically lose their licence for 10 years.

      Yeah, car thieves are famously very particular about laws relating to cars.

      …Wait a minute… No, it’s the opposite of that.

    So … what’s stopping them from just continuing to steal cars and just drive around without a license then?

    If they can get away with stealing millions of dollars worth of cars … all they need is just a bit more effort and they can keep living a life of luxury by driving around without a license. If the police can’t do anything about car theft … it’s a joke to think they can check on a driver’s license. They’ll charge and arrest dozens of innocent victims with a minor license infraction before finding some car thief driving around without a license.

    It’s great because we are definitely headed to a lawless state by being led by the party of law and order.

    If there’s anything car thieves believe in it’s the sanctity of drivers licenses.
