> Frozen desert sellers - I hate to bring out the '...but think of the children argument,' but seriously, do you know if the grungy dude in the van selling ice-cream to your kids knows how to handle food safely? Has a criminal record? Has 12 DUIs?
I fail to see the relevance of criminal records and DUIs to handling ice cream.
- lurker19 15y agoCriminal background checks are a common concern when licensing adults who work with children. DUI history is a common concern when licensing occupations that involve driving niche equipment under challenging circumstances, such as a truck in a throng of tiny jaywalking pedestrians.
- Muzza 15y agoI see. Your definition of "working with children" is miles wider than mine. I take it you're also in favor of licensure and criminal background checks for people working in children's clothing stores? If the law allows you to have a driver's license even though you have 12 DUIs, I can't see any reason why you shouldn't be allowed to drive a van.
