    I think that 99% of people that are not already riders would think that loss of the DL as one half step away from incarceration. I think most committed cyclists would have real issue too. Heck, I ride to and from work every day year round and look forward to each ride rain or shine but the though of no DL is chilling. I love my bike but 100% true car free would be a logistical nightmare.

    That’s exactly why it would/should be a decent deterrent to becoming a drunken murderer. :rolleyes:

    Around here is would be difficult. In large parts of the US, it would be nearly impossible to get around. There aren’t buses. There aren’t cabs. The distance to the nearest grocery store is more than 10 miles.

    Then if they can’t avoid killing people they should move.

    Hopefully the aspect of a long incarceration would be a deterrent. Sadly I think that most people live in the moment and think they are better drivers than other people. This leads to over confidence under concentration and heartbreak.
