Reply #40: Bad drivers will always be bad drivers, no matter what privilege you take away.

The problem is emphasis. Some people can drive and multi-task (eating, talking, stuff like that) and still put their focus on driving. Others don't give a damn about the driving part. They focus entirely on the phone. If they weren't on the phone, they'd focus on their breakfast, their tie, the radio, or something they forgot in the back seat.

The ones I'd love to see the death penalty for are the street racers. Anyone going more then ten over the flow of traffic (not necessarily the speed limit) should be arrested and jailed, at least, and anyone racing or zig-zagging through traffic--including motorcycles--should be put out of existence before they take someone else out with them. There's a case where it's unfair to others to wait on Darwin.
