I Say We Just Brand Them With a Giant "D"

Maryland Democrat Herman Taylor has a great idea, he want's the state to issue special license plates with DUI letters to drivers with two or more DUI convictions. Taylor, who apparantly never read the constitution, says, ""(The bill) will allow (police) to, without probable cause, pull them over and check" their driving records." Clearly no reader of this blog he. Granted he may be a little biased because a "drunken driver struck him last May, and at the time of the crash, police had no idea that person was a multiple offender." What I'm trying to figure out is how the DUI tag would have prevented that accident. It would make more sense to make all DUI offenders place sirens and blinking lights on their car so at least you could avoid them.

No, what would make the most sense is to take the licenses away from drivers convicted of a DUI. There shouldn't be multiple DUI's because you shouldn't be driving if you've proven you can't hanlde it and are a danger to the rest of us. No constitutional infringments, just the removal of a privilage they've shown they don't deserve.
