@michelle r: Precisely.

@richardb: Actually, I strongly believe that people who have demonstrated a propensity to drive unsafely should be prevented from driving. I believe that your driving privileges should depend on your behavior, not your ability to pay.

Furthermore, one of the reasons that it's difficult to keep bad drivers off the road is that, in most places, there are no alternatives. If you take away someone's license in present-day America, they are likely to drive anyway, because otherwise they cannot get around. If we change our transportation system so that people can get around without cars, this will also make it less likely that people with suspended licenses will keep driving.
