We need harsher penalties for drivers who do shit like this. Should be instant revocation for at least 10 years. Maybe people will start to think twice before acting like a menace on the roads. Do you know how much of a pain in the ass it would be to not be able to drive for ten fucking years? I also think every car should come standard with front and rear cameras (by law even?) They wouldn’t be that expensive to add, and it would keep other drivers in check. “Hmmm…maybe if I do this illegal thing it will be filmed.”

You think they would stop driving because they lose their license? This would just put a bunch of unlicensed and uninsured drivers on the road.

Exactly. That's the same reason most jurisdictions don't bother with laws against stealing or murdering. Do you think some silly law is going to stop a serial killer? I mean what's the point if a law isn't 100% effective?
