What a bunch of crap.....really?!? Why not just say move to the US and we will take care of you. What a bunch of bull crap. Illegals are just that illegal.

No.

They are allowed much more than that ! Unfortunately, the US citizens are going to be the ones suffering behind all the ILLEGALS freedoms here in our Country.

I believe there was something once, and maybe there still is, called an international drivers permit for folks visiting places like Europe.

And BTW, a persons driving skills are in no way related to their race or citizenship.

No one said race or citizenship had anything to do with driving skills. Visitors are different from illegal entrance. Illegals should have zero rights to anything. They end up with more right than citizens doing something illegal. A right to absolutely nothing if you enter illegally.

Without illegal aliens,
there aren't many people left,
for the dems to exploit for political gain.
And, cheap labor.

I don't know if illegals get more rights than citizens. I believe very strongly that is nowhere near true.

But, I do believe that it is inconsistent to declare someone is not in the country legally, but they are on our country's roads legally.

I am not for basic human rights like being able to eat or have shelter being stripped for legal status, sometimes people do not have the time and money to invest in the path to legal immigration.

But a privilege such as driving should not be granted. As I recall, a driver without a permit who is driving legally on the road and hit by another is held responsible because they should not have been on the road. Likewise, if you should not be in the country, I dont see why you should be given the privilege of driving in the country.

Illegals will drive, licence or not. I actually think illegals will drive safer, for the only reason that they won't break the laws, that get them stopped. I drove for years without car insurance. How do you do it? Follow the speed limit, watch what others around you are doing, and anticipate what those cars are going to do in front of you. (and behind) Stay off da phone.

States say you must have insurance to licence your vehicle. But they don't check if you actually have it. I used an expired policy number for years. I have it now, but only enough to licence my vehicle. They used to call it defensive driving, but I haven't heard it called that for years.

I still drive like I don't have insurance. The mess you have to cope with after an accident, becomes the reason why you should try to drive safely. I avoid busy streets at certain times of the day, just because people aren't watching what they're doing. I spot people driving like garbage all the time. Go do it in front of me. You can't hit me, If you're in front of me.

I have been hit by an illegal without a driver license. I chased them down and made them pay for the damage. They paid cash. They kept saying no policia no policia. They had their car tagged in another state and we're living in our state. If there were no illegals then there wouldn't be a problem.

If they can't do what it takes to become legal whether it's because of money or not.oney isn't the only reason an individual gets blocked from this country. Criminal history is a reason and we should make it easier. I don't think so.

A country should not be responsible for the fees it costs to get your history and do an investigation to find out if you are approved. Yes they should have to pay for it.

And you think that will change anything when they are afraid you will turn them in and they get caught for being here illegally. Okay you keep thinking that. The only thing they want is that the police won't be called.

I have to show a current dated insurance card to get my new plates. Gets crosschecked with the insurance company after it is submitted to the state. Pain in the azz caused by people doing just what you use to do! No drivers license or insurance should = impounding the vehicle!!

Do people from other countries have to take a driving test in order to get a driver's licence? Do they have to take a written test?

I would think that if you move to another country, and you want to drive, there are different skills/laws you have to know.

I think, if you are visiting, a license from your country suffices. But if you are going to reside in a place, generally testing and proof of residency are required.

This is from what I can remember, I would look it up and verify it though.

Going back to my young days, 16/17 years old, we were giving a giant driver's manual to read. We had to take a written test to pass.

If we passed the written test, then we got a permit to drive with someone who had a real license.

aFTER that, you have to be with someone that is testing you for driving skills to pass a test on the road.

Illegals need a test. That's fair.

nothing like the UN Migration Pact being FORCED on us..and if trump doesn't do anything about it..it's only going to get worse..I think if ANYTHING happens to OUR citizens because of the aiding and abetting of illegals..the victims should be able to sue the government and the sanctuary cities..maybe then they will get the message..there DEFINITELY is two sets of rules for two different sets of people in this country..but then again Hillary shows us that..starting to look more like a third world country every day..what's fair is "showing them the exit" until they come in LEGALLY..

I agree.
Especially if they're driving.
Because the fees go to pay for the roads.
They also require some sort of paper trail for identification.
It makes it easier for insurance purposes.

Driving and residency are completely different issues.
IMO it's little different than a foreign tourist getting a rental car.
It does not confer on them rights of citizenship or voting.
It just makes it easier to track them and deal with car accidents.

The first time I moved to New Mexico my insurance rates skyrocketed.
What was causing the high rates was the number of people driving drunk, and the number of illegals that were getting into accidents and just driving off (which happened to me twice in 3 years)...they had no license, they had no insurance (uninsured motorists, a large percentage were illegals).

Not to mention "illegals" do not get the same drivers licenses as citizens, they don't look the same. You look at their license, you know they aren't a citizen.


A lot of people have been saying that for years.
Those people seem to be winning.
Seems directly proportional to the increasing number of idiots.
I just thought that was funny.
More and more people are identifying as democrats, liberals, progressives, leftists, and more and more people are complaining about the increase in "stupidity" (and lack of consideration of others, which is even more ironic).


There is no right to drive. Getting a license doesn't mean they get free cars, free gas, free insurance, or anything. They are not given anything which actually facilitates them driving, especially if they couldn't before.
Giving (selling) them a license does not convey or recognize any additional rights.
It's a bureaucratic identification system.


Not giving them licenses doesn't solve any problems.
Issuing licenses actually helps, a little, other problems. Like paying for road maintenance, and facilitating procurement of car insurance.


Huh? People are responsible for bringing in their own "history" to the DMV to get their license. Citizen or illegal.


What investigation?
You just have to prove you are you and you know how to drive. You have to bring in your own evidence proving you are you.

Are you talking about registering a vehicle or renewing plates? The cost of any "investigation" or "cross referencing" is built into the fees.

Are you under the impression illegals just show up to the DMV and are ushered into a secret room where the government rolls out a red carpet?
And the illegal says "Okay! I showed up! Where's my license?!" and the workers scramble around costing taxpayer money to do everything for them in order to feel the privilege of handing an illegal a drivers license, or something?
