Do you similarly think that switching "impaired driving" legislation from a regulatory to a pure punishment based (you only pay on accidents) approach would be an improvement? Because I think not, for following reaons:
- You create invariably numerous cases where culprits can't pay (post harm) because they are bankrupt at that point or possibly already dead themselves. This is unsatisfactory.
- You reward reckless behavior as long as nothing happens. I think that "recklessness", specifically, should be punished regardless of actual outcome (same for industry/corporations).
