Lol you need about 4 or 5 speeding tickets to accumulate enough points to have your license suspended. Or you could go like a hundred miles over the speed limit and get it revoked all in one fell swoop.

The defendant lacks accountability. There wouldn’t have been an accident had she not been driving without a license and speeding, especially since her license was taken away for speeding. Yet, she wants to blame the city for the black ice and justify speeding by saying everyone does it.

It's like states that don't require yearly inspections, yes you potentially save money and time but you don't know what could potentially be wrong with your vehicle. Something detrimental could be wrong and you'd never know! It's also going to make insurance rates skyrocket for those that choose to have insurance because of the lack of driver's that chose to have it; the companies see it as a potential financial issue.

[@mickm6309]

C'mon, the city should have got rid of the black ice. 🤣🤣 Most areas here where black ice forms is in low density areas, there are always signs where it is known to occur and it is up to drivers to adjust their driving to the conditions. Black ice is near impossible to see and doesn't require snow to form, we only have the bare minimum of snow here in Melbourne in the hilly areas, so small a fall it looks like frost on the grass.

[@bhornannawindeedeigh5007]

​@mickm6309 Well, sir Mick, she was driving in snowy conditions and driving a stick-shift, so she should've adjusted her speed for those conditions. You can't go squealing around corners or driving faster than road and traffic conditions warrant (nightime, snowing, possible freezing to black ice, which as you said, you can't see) -- especially when you are driving w/o a license and have no insurance. She took her chances and ended up in a bad wreck. She lucked out not being more severely injured.

IMO, I think it is unfair to just get the value of the car in the blue book. It should always be at least the value of any loans owed on it.
