A driver’s license can be taken away if you break the law too many times, but in reality, this system is designed to fail in places that all but require the use of a car. awalkerinLA reports on how we often treat a license like a right, not a privilege

The social contract that Americans enter into every time we use a U.S. street relies upon a system of regulation and enforcement that is, in theory, supposed to protect us from the dangerous act of driving. State motor-vehicle departments license drivers and register vehicles; federal agencies like the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ensure that those vehicles are, ostensibly, safe.
If enforcement isn’t effective, what about focusing on stricter suspensions for people based on demonstrated incidents, like crash histories? Thanks to an agreement made in the 1970s, it should be easy for DMVs to share information about collisions and infractions across state lines. But those systems are out of date — some databases date to that same era — and bad drivers often slip through the cracks.
