I would be absolutely furious and in no mood to entertain abstract political theories. I see where you're coming from. Irresponsible ignoramuses in large numbers cannot be allowed, like wild animals, to destroy lives and property. My only concern is that I have always been a responsible, law abiding, taxpaying citizen, watching his freedom and liberty diminished because of the actions of others. I understand why, but I also recognize that unscrupulous politicians will always use pragmatic reasonable arguments to increase their power over me. No easy answers..... except maybe a tiered citizenship based on test scores. Poll tax, anything that would dis-empower the mob and empower the intelligent.

Govern-cement is a criminal organization who wants absolute control, and so they will take whatever freedoms they can.
They write laws to limit freedom.
The problem comes in that laws don't work. The 90% of people who follow the law, follow it without their being a law. The law is unnecessary.
So, what is a real law? If you do X, we (the community) will punish you, and here are the typical punishments for doing X.
The proper way to handle the really bad driver above is to take away his car. And if he is found driving someone elses car, then we will fine that other person, and limit the bad drivers movements.
This quickly escalates to a death sentence or life imprisonment.
But the real thing is that it is community based. Everyone knows it was Jake in 1975 Nova who has been tearing all over the place.
The govern-cement... what do they do? Well, they give a driving test. And then put him back on the road. Cause, anyone can pass a driving test. Even when he kills someone, it is an "accident", not murder. Govern-cement can't do this job. They have to be impartial in the way that makes them fail, and personal when it absolutely has to be impersonal. (if a city inspector gets upset at you, you may as well leave the state)
