Various websites list the percentage of uninsured Florida motorists at 23 to 30 percent. So 1 in 4 people are driving illegally and causing potentially devastating hardship to themselves as well as others. How much do these people add each year to our already high health care costs?
Isn't one in four breaking the law enough probable cause to start enforcing the law? Driving is a privilege not a right, so start enforcing the most basic of traffic laws.
Not to turn this into an immigration thread but as Grapesoda pointed out, what do illegal immigrants add to everyone's insurance as well as medical bills? According to a 2010 New York Times investigation an estimated 4.5 million illegal immigrants nationwide are driving regularly, most without licenses.
It's probably safe to assume no one in this country illegally, without a license, is paying for auto insurance.
edit; This $859.00 is just for my motorcycle coverage, when I'm drunk I'm going to see what it also adds to my automotive coverage …….
