CA is trying to pass a law which gives greater legal PROTECTIONS to those driving WITHOUT a drivers liscence INCLUDING ILlegal immigrants

In some counties in CA police set up drunk driving checkpoints (which is pretty unconstitutional because it assumes thT you are guilty and need o be checked) as it stands now if they find someone who is sober but unliscenced they are now allowed to seize their car.

The bill would put a stop to that ... And allow the unliscenced driver to continue on the road ...

Oh and unliscenced drivers will NOT have insurance in most cases because they need a liscence in order to qualify.

UNDER THE BILL (CA Bill AB 353)

Police must locate legal owner or authorized Los en Ed driver to get car at check point

if the police make a reasonable effort and fail to find a driver, THEN they impound the car

unliscenced driver would only be cited/ticketed but not arrested

Impoundments at CA checkpoints generated $40million for towing fees & fens

Only 13% of inpounded (from the checkpoints) cars were connected to charges of DUI

Between 2007 - 2009, number of cars seized went up 53% at the checkpoints

ILlegals are PROBITED from having a liscence in CA

Unliscenced drivers are 5 times more likely to be in an accident
Unliscenced drivers are 4 times more likely to be in a DUI accident
