Dis.

You really don't want to go that way with me. As an agent I see a lot of behaviors that need to be corrected or punished.

Maybe I missed the first part of the argument where I said that drunks (or those considered legally intoxicated) should be put in jail if they don't hit/hurt anyone; I don't believe I ever made that statement. Should they have their license pulled - yes.

Someone with multiple speeding tickets. Not jailed, but definately punished more than just higher rates. Remedial drivers licenses or have their license suspended for a while.

While we're at it, let's talk about cell phone use (since you wanted to spread this out over other "groups"). Some states have made their use illegal, I don't go that far; but I do think if someone is in an at-fault accident while using one the driver should be charged with DWI.

Now you know my side. None of these behaviors is safe; it's not the drinking thing, it's the safety aspect. None of these "classes" of drivers is "safe; " and since it is a dangerous instrumentality they are driving - it is their responsibility to do it safely.
