Comment on This is crazy. Why don't you just take their car ?

Tell me you are a child incapable of governance without telling me
If they are incapable of driving, and being a part of the statistics of people who kill others on the road, they must not drive. That’s easy. It’s not a death sentence. We prevent pedophiles from working with children, same thing.
Or we remove all the speed limits and seat belts being mandatory, but we know from 60 years of statistics that the numbers of people killed on the road will be multiplied by 100.
You don’t prevent pedophiles from working you prevent them from working with kids
Under your own obscene pedophile analogy it’s actually much more appropriate to put speed limiters on cars than remove their cars entirely
You don’t prevent them from driving you prevent them from driving too fast
Wow! What a slamn
Tell me you’re an embryo incapable of understanding consequences, etc.
Zing!
Give them the guillotine like the people breaking laws you agree with!
Take the bus moron. You can read on the bus.
You must not live in America if you think most people have access to a bus
Have you never been to New York City where this story takes place?

Is this post in fuckcars? No? Well it should be. We should be investing more in public transit and building cities people can live in without necessarily owning a car. Your participation in society should not hinge on a multi-thousand dollar purchase of a car along with the yearly insurance and other maintenance costs.

Yes we should and you are 100% right but that isn’t the society we live in
We live in one where you cannot live in a true survival sense in 99% of all locations without a car
Until the public transit and walkable cities exist the wrong people are being punished
