But you'll wake up the next day in a someoneelse's body somewhere else on earth knowing nothing of your new bodys past experience language or anything. You can only remember your past life experience.
This might not be as bad as I sounds actually. Could be interesting.
The law works because if he was just slapped with a fine that's just like saying "yes you can drive like a maniac as long as you just pay and he can clearly afford it. This way he's stopped properly and will probably never be speeding again in dk
Okay then I don't understand your way of car pooling. It's not really thing here since it's either impractical or public transport is way better or biking is a possibility
You still get a massive fine of 1200 kr (175usd) in this case at 20kmh and at only 30% above you get a "cut in your license" (like a yellow card in football). 3 of those "cuts" and you have to get a new licens. 60% above the limit they outright take your licens and the fine goes up. If the speed limit is reduced due to road work the fine is doubled. And many more rules. If you are a student or pensioner you fine gets halfed for instance.
Besides the fine if you go at 60% or above you also need to pay 500kr or more to a "victims" fond that raises money for the victims of traffic accidents.
I do t agree on the crushing aspect of this law. It's environmental iresponsibil and stupid. Just sell/auktion the car and spend the money on making better traffic safety
I just tried looking uh up and it's still too early to say. Of course the car lobby ar criticising the law and asking why they are not year concluding anything yet but to be fair it has just been covid and 2 years is just so short to see any impact to the statistics.
In my own opinion I think it must work. It's a specific type of people who drive wreklessly and often in groups of "cool guys". If you start to remove cars from those groups they will be more hesitant to lend each other cars. If they get impacted the story will carry more impact than a massive fine. A car is very a physical object and is more visible than a debt. If a dad find his son drove wreklessly and got the car confiscated it wil be a stronger lesson for both the father and the son. I can be unfair but we have tried fines for so long and it has not worked. We already have the some of the biggest fines for traffic violations in the world.
I said "or more" because I don't know the details. Depending on what you did you can get banned for much longer or even face jail time if it's very severe. It's individual and depends on the offence
As I wrote to someone else my reasoning is this. It puts the responsibility into the hands of the car owner. Just replace the word car with gun and it all sounds reasonable. If I just lend my gun to a friend who I only know very little or I have never seen hold a gun in his hand that would be very bad. Or if a company leases big guns that are super dangerous. Even if he has a license for guns. And if he shot someone or broke the law in other ways with the gun I’d only expect the gun to be confiscated regardless of who owns it.
