What a ridiculous idea.
Surely all women drivers should be issued with an 'Idiot' sign when they start to drive, and then they can apply to have them revoked after, say, ten years driving without using the rear view mirror to apply their bluddy make up
or five years without causing a hideous traffic jam due to bad parking

What she did was wrong, she got punished. What Bernie Madoff did was wrong, and he is behind bars. Gotti, Snipes, Lohan....the list goes on, but I think you get the point.
Aren't you just sore because it's a WOMAN being punished (I take it that's a picture of you in your avatar) ?Comment

They've got some of the most corrupt judiciary in the world in the USA. Look up operation Court Broom some time if you want just one example. There are others. The clown that doled this 'punishment' out for their own amusement and self-publicity comes right out of the Joe Arpaio school of 'justice'. 'Punishments' like this one help no-one. They just amuse a few small minds for a short while.
There's a reason why the USA has 25% of the world's prisoners, but only 4% of its population. That reason is either that Americans are just much more naturally criminally-inclined than the rest of the world, or it's because their judicial system is broken. Have a guess which is most likely.Comment
