UK : driving licenses being removed for non-driving offences? I've seen a few press releases from various UK Police forces where they are alleging that because of new legislation they can not only confiscate vehicles (police reform act 2003?) but disqualify someone from driving for a non-motoring offence.
Apparently this legislation is being used against hare coursers, the travelling criminals who rob old people but there are threats to use this against ravers as well... anyone else heard about this?
I'm sure this is completely incompatible with human rights laws...
if people are being cruel to animals or robbing other people there are existing laws to deal with this.
If the offence is serious enough they should go to prison in the first place; which will keep them off the road far more permanently (after all many people ignore driving bans anyway)
As a cyclist I'm completely against bad and dangerous driving but there are plenty of traffic laws in this country.
But surely a driving license is a qualification you have gained by showing your skills that you are competent to be in charge of a potentially dangerous motor vehicle; not a test of your morality (other than being prepared to share resources such as road space?)
Its also completely disproportionate if used against ravers; as it would deny them the use of a car for legitimate purposes such as work, college or job-hunting?
To me this seems tantamount to revoking someones GCSE's because they got caught shoplifting or revoking a degree because someone protested against a political issue (happens in some other countries; which is why otherwise highly qualified refugees/immigrants do menial jobs here)
