People would keep driving anyway.  Can't count how many expired tags I see everyday on the road. What's that tell you? Have you seen the statistics for uninsured motorists in this state?  We rank 21st. Those two things alone tell me where there is a will, there is a way.  Money is a non-factor.  The state doesn't enforce fines anyway; they just pass them on to a collection agency. Secondly, you have a state that's trying to reduce jail crowding via SB91 that passed last July. First time DUIs are booked in then released.  They don't even spend the night in jail anymore. What makes you think they're gonna pass laws on "non-violent" crimes and punish people who drive erroneously?  Not saying I disagree with you, just pointing out the facts.
