Actually I tend to post on the silliest most inane themes because the lack of common sense drives me nuts.
I really do not understand your point of view. Why would you want to increase your risk of getting hit by a car? I was hit by a car when I was a child and I can affirm that it is not in anyway shape or form a good thing. I do most everything I can to improve the chances of getting where ever I am going safe and sound whether that is by air, road, rail or walking. Why would anybody advocate increasing the chances of getting seriously hurt? I trust my driving a lot but I have seen enough idiots driving on our streets that I do not trust anybody's driving any more than I have to. Better 20 minutes late on earth than 20 years to early in heaven.
If the reason for changing our laws is because enforcement does not work then the first law that should be changed is the one that is broken the most and by most accounts that would be theft. How well do you think that will work?
