New Vehicle Laws in California

[Morty426]

It is kinda two fold: one yes for the voters who only vote for free money for themselves and two for the politicians who won't face down a problem that will bankrupt them.

I say this because other states have actually taken measures to head this problem off and yet Calif can only keep spending $$$ they don't have. 

No it's the later.  The politicians are too scared to make the hard decisions so they bury things in committee.  That results in someone how does not understand all of the ramifications putting a ballot initiative to be voted by the masses.  Remember HALF of those people are BELOW AVERAGE intelligence. 

The same thing happened in England.  They were too pansy to decide on Brexit so they punted to the people.  Being a bunch of twits they voted themselves out.  Now they will tank their economy and there will be a huge ripple through the world economy. 

We need to change the ballot initiative process and hold our politicians more accountable.

Simple cause and effect scenario. More "free" money offerings equates to more persons entering state for it.
For real change to work. Tough and unpleasant decisions need to be made. Creating masses that lose out on what others are already receiving becomes political suicide. Because of that, real change never happens. Only smoke and mirrors to kick can down the road further.
We are unfortunately a reactive society. Not a proactive one.
They don't put up a traffic signal until after someone dies.
When the legitimate and eventual crash happens. There will then be possible real change. Not until then.

That is all the US not just the US. 

Two 737 Max 8/9 planes went down and we grounded the fleet.

Yet EVERY DAY ~100 young drivers in the US die EVERY DAY.  It used to be higher but it is down because fewer younger drivers are enter the driving pool.  It used to be at 130 per day which was equal to a 737 going down EVERY DAY.  What did we do?  NOTHING!

We need real driver training for young drivers (and maybe some older ones).

Better yet let's remove all the young mans testosterone.  For every improvement we just find another avenue to thrill and kill.

Comment meant with every bit of sarcasm it sounds like. But with the touch of reality in it.

It's a well known fact at the age of 13 the male brain shrinks to the size of a peanut and does not grow back until 25.  Some later.  Others never.  That's why we did all that stupid shit when we were young.
