I am so tired of making it "easier" for law enforcement to do their jobs. It's almost as if we must all be guilty until a picture or technology proves otherwise. I'm not worried about uninsured motorists as much as I am about unfettered big government and law enforcement. I realize it can be exceedingly difficult if you are involved in an accident with an uninsured driver, but that is what having uninsured motorist insurance is about. I don't like having to pay for that part of my insurance, but I'd rather do that than have cameras and such. We lose the human aspect of things. A person might be temporarily in the middle of changing insurance, a person might have lost a job, a person might be on the way to an emergency, etc. Many reasons are out there, but technology removes the human aspect. Pictures and technology don't lie, but there might be mitigating circumstances. Just because a driver is or isn't insured will not prevent accidents. Nor will we be safe from underinsured, inexperienced, or under the influence drivers. Shall we install breathalyzers in ever car? Shall we install shut-offs for anyone that makes an errant movement that could cause an accident? Why not just get super tech and completely control the movements of our cars like a kiddie carnival ride? Personal responsibility is lacking in our society! We back up using cameras and when we accidentally hit something, it is the camera's fault and not our inability to rely on our own senses while utilizing technology. Technology is not fail-proof. It's a tool, but we tend not to use it as such when we can make revenue from it! Especially law enforcement and government!]]>Mar 31st 2009 4:55PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/]]>Mar 24th 2009 8:12PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/Mar 24th 2009 8:13PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/Mar 24th 2009 9:25PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/Is it a tax that everyone will have to pay? Or is it a way to catch criminals who are attempting to steal from traffic victims by injuring and killing them, then saying that "All I have is my wrecked car and this sleeping bag, so sue me"? It's about time to force this type of driver off the road. ]]>Mar 25th 2009 12:49AMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/Mar 24th 2009 8:22PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/Mar 24th 2009 8:52PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/In the State of New Hampshire, you are not required to carry automobile insurance unless you have had accidents in the past or been convicted of a DUI. And then it must be ordered by the courts or the DMV.
Of course, if you get caught driving out of state, your vehicle will be impounded and you will need to obtain proof of insurance before it will be released.
How do I know these things you ask?
They have happened to me and friends.]]>Mar 24th 2009 8:22PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/http://www.switched.com/2009/03/24/new-database-will-expose-uninsured-drivers-to-cops/Mar 24th 2009 8:44PM
