Although Lindsay Lohan’s latest car accident was pretty insignificant by itself, it could, in a more rational world, have been the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back where her driving privileges are concerned. Do we have to wait for her to kill someone before the Golden State takes away her license? At the very least, her car insurance must be ridiculous. Lohan and driving were enough of a concern for Lifetime producers to specify that she couldn’t operate a motor vehicle while they were filming Liz & Dick, in which Lohan starred as Elizabeth Taylor (the insurance for the picture would have been too high). Just this year, she’s been involved in three accidents, one of them a hit and run. Lindsay Lohan and cars don’t appear to mix well, but let’s let history be continue
I like driving cars. And as a driver, I have no problem registering my car in each new state I move to, keeping my insurance up to date, having regular required inspections and submitting to a driver’s test to get my driver’s license. Driving a big piece of metal and glass at high speeds should rightly be a big responsibility that folks should take seriously, that should be regulated to ensure appropriate safety for everyone on the road.

If a police officer makes a lawful arrest of a drunken driver, the state is justified in revoking the offender’s driver’s license, the New Mexico Supreme Court decided Thursday in a Farmington case.

It also affirmed the ruling of former state District Judge Thomas Hynes. He heard Schuster’s first challenge, and ruled that the Motor Vehicle Division had sufficient grounds to take away Schuster’s license. The case began in the early morning hours of May 30, 2009, when Schuster’s motorcycle tipped on its side as he tried to drive it from a parking lot. Farmington police Officer David Karst saw what happened and said he drove to the parking lot because he was concerned that Schuster could be hurt continue
