..as much as I hate to say "go Texas"...I give Dallas props!

Recently, the City of Dallas, Texas, passed an ordinance stating that if a driver is pulled over by law enforcement and is not able to provide proof of insurance, their car is towed.


To retrieve their car after being impounded, they must show proof of insurance to have their car released. This has made it easy for the City of Dallas to remove uninsured cars that are typically driven mostly by illegals.


Shortly after the "No Insurance" ordinance was passed, the Dallas impound lots began to fill up and were full after only nine days. Most of the impounded cars were driven by illegals.


Not only must they provide proof of insurance to have their car released, they have to pay for the cost of the tow, a $350 fine, and $20 for every day their car is kept in the lot.
Dallas' solution gets uninsured drivers off the road WITHOUT making them show proof of nationality. Wonder how the ACLU or the Justice Department will get around this one.
Brings a tear to my eye.



GO Texas!
