Wonder how this applies to a 2 parent household where one of the parents is killed. Will they have to pay half of what child support would be?
Regardless, hope it keeps our streets a bit safer.

Like Governor Jeff Landry's new Ten Commandments in the schools law, there are a lot of potentials for intense discussions here, some of which have already been mentioned. There's a lot of ifs and what-abouts lying in wait.
Perhaps they could just impose the death penalty, prohibit purchase at the liquor store, and close all the bars 3 days before Christmas through New Years. That might work.
As an alternative, maybe we could teach our children some personal responsibility.
Texas is becoming more weird by the day.

We really need to go to nationwide self driving cars as soon as possible. The amount of car crash deaths will drop to almost zero.
Or you could make cities more pedestrian—and biker-friendly so there are fewer cars, nuking the suburbs in the process.
More Tech Bro "solutions" are not what the world needs.

The cognitive dissonance is palpable

I get it, good intent, but how is someone likely to be going to jail going to pay child support?
In most cases probably not, but, you could have someone who's rich, or, someone who somehow gets a shorter prison sentence.

Dwi’s are a fricking money grab for the most part. Wanna eliminate dwi’s? Put an interlock into every car no matter what. But Leo would be against this because then that would stop their revenue stream.

Zero percent that happens.
100% chance that the majority of cars will be self driving within a generation. Maybe less. And we’ll all be much safer for it.

he amount of cars that blow through the stop sign daily is ridiculous - but they do it because there is no real accountability
this video addresses exactly that issue. Great watch.

The stupidest post I read today occurred at approximately 7:30 this morning. Another contender has emerged at 9:57 am

You mean, teach kids not to let their parents get killed by drunk drivers? B/c the children involved here are the ones left parentless by drunk driving.
And you think Texas is weird?

You don’t want to eliminate dwi’s??

He’s not wrong. They don’t set up DWI check points to keep people safe. They do it for the money. This should be considered an endorsement for drinking and driving. Drinking and driving is a terrible and dangerous but not the reason they pull people over for it.

You completely missed the point. You can’t drain blood from a stone no matter how much the stone deserves it.

Sell off their assets, consequences are the only way to curb certain behavior no matter how much leftists screech otherwise

At what rate? The drunk earns 15k a year but kills a man who makes 800k a year who leaves behind 3 kids and a horny widow. How much is the child support? Remember, gooooooooooooooooooooberment will do anything to earn that 12% it makes off of the Child Support payments.
Do you really think it is about the chirren?
