Government run chopshops is what you are suggesting. The incentives are all bad, it would get exploited even if the profit goes to a school, because the middlemen still get paid. Kickbacks to cops getting cars into the workshop.
I don't disagree with the general sentiment mind you. I think tarketing specific cars will do little, given even a regulation following car is still very impactful across a range of issues.
- erikaww 2y agoThere sounds like a simple fix: have the city run the full stack (including towing). Ideally most cars flowing in would be from automated enforcement. Regulation will only work with strong enforcement. By taking such aggressive actions, we can also elicit information on shops doing illegal work and have the police shut their businesses down.
- shiroiushi 2y agoI don't like the idea of destroying stuff (except aftermarket noise-making parts). How about sticking the car on a boat and shipping it to some other country and donating it there? No one profits.
