Garden City cracks down on!!!

I would love to see Dodge City step up on this problem as well.

From the Globe: DodgeCity.com

Quote:
WICHITA -- Newly revised traffic laws in Garden City that impose mandatory jail sentences for drivers repeatedly caught without a license or insurance have spawned fears among some Hispanics in the western Kansas meatpacking town.
I just love this part

Quote:
Hispanic leaders say the measure particularly affects illegal immigrants, because a Social Security number is required to obtain or renew a driver's license in Kansas.

State officials have said 15,000 driver's license holders got their license without a Social Security number. The Kansas Department of Revenue has also estimated that at least 160,000 Kansas drivers have no insurance. Estimates put the illegal immigrant population in Kansas at between 50,000 and 70,000.
Go Garden City!!
