Damn you got me... This sounds horrible

It is already super expensive for a normal speeding ticket so yes people are really careful. Still people speed everywhere it's just only a little over

Trust me they are still banned from driving for a year or more if this law triggeres

That's probably the exceptions I mentioned. I'm no expert, bit of be unreasonable to the owner if the car was stolen.

The law states that it has to be 100% over AND over 100 kmh fo for a 40 zone you'd have to driver over 100kmh for the car to be confiscated

Well I agree it might be a bit crazy, but I also must admit that I like the law because it works and it makes it such that I don't want to lend my car out to anyone unless I know for sure how they drive by driving with them a few times. 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. 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.

Exactly. In Danish we exclusively use promill (per thousands) for blood alcohol level so it's a habit for me to use ‰ or more commonly the written form promille

Nope, doesn't work like that here. We don't have constitutions the way you do on the US. Many cases have been tried in court and the offender lost in many cases

Tbh I have no idea how it works in practice but I'd assume the leasing companies will just pass on the cost to the offender

It also makes people think twice before lending their car to any random friend

It's still confiscate. The law is pretty clear that it pretty much doesn't matter who owns the car.

Åh jeg elsker denne historie. Det er det toppen af det bedste

I'll know how to construct a full exoskeleton with a brain interface and communicate the instructions to someone who can build it for me. Just look at how well Stephen Hawkins fared

I will always have full knowledge of everything and know how to do anything

Wherever you leave from instantly goes to war.

Thanks.

Come to Denmark where we have advertising on busses with full on boobs in full show. It's advertiseing for breast implants btw

This is exactly the reason they are doing it. Proportional to income and the car is completely and physically removed from the road. There was a big issue here where the offender would just drive without license or the car was leased or borrowed so there was no real penalty. Now the leasing company would have to take responsibility for leasing fancy supercars to anyone and everyone and people lending their car to a known drunk or fast driver would definitely think twice.

Normally me neither, bit in this context where you are driving so recklessly you are endangering everyone else and we are talking over double the speed limit I'll allow it. Noone has any rights left when you are doing that kind of stuff deliberately.

In a good way yes.
