Imagine if DC got tough on crime, law enforcement, and suspended the driver's licenses of people with outrageous bills for vehicle violations. 3 more people would be alive. More examples of how being lax on criminal behavior is destroying lives:
https://wtop.com/dc/2023/03/3-dead-2-injured-after-two-vehicle-crash-on-rock-creek-parkway/ But let me guess, suspending licenses and impounding cars of reckless drivers who have insane numbers of violations will violate rights and is oppression. Tell that to the families of the dead. |
A person with $12k in tickets will not refrain from driving because his license is suspended. Impounding the car would be a good idea though. |
Why was this person not already behind bars? |
This article is hard to understand. Did the culprit die? |
OP loves speed cameras! |
No, the ran into a Honda with 3 people and killed them all. |
Exactly, this person's violations were so grotesque, the city should have tracked the car down and impounded it. Or booted it at a minimum. Actually, they probably should have been in jail too. They should have never been on the road in the first place. 3 people would still be alive if DC did its job. |
Do you really think that a suspended license would stopped this guy? This is a terrible story, twisting it to fit your agenda is sickening. |
I assume this individual will be in jail soon charged with vehicular homicide or manslaughter. |
Imagine if Rock Creek Parkway weren't a four-lane highway. But yes, I agree. Reckless drivers should have their cars impounded and their licenses revoked. Automated enforcement needs enforcement. |
The driver who killed two people on the sidewalk outside the Parthenon restaurant has not been charged, as far as I know. |
I’m the OP of the thread about leniency for DUIs. This is also outrageous. This person was a known serial speeder who ran red lights. It was honestly just a matter of time until they killed someone. I truly don’t understand why we basically do nothing about vehicular crimes. |
hopefully. That won’t mean much to the families of the 3 dead people though. |
They were speed camera tickets. The driver is not identified in speed camera tickets. No way to know who racked up those tickets. |
The car racked up the tickets. Impound the car. |
