People who support this law claim that it will get more people trained and insured.
That may be.
But I have a question.
Now that the State of California has probable cause to believe that Esteban Rodrigues, whose residence is 1234 Main St. in Los Angeles, is an illegal alien, why doesn't an officer from the Dept. of Homeland Security go to his house, arrest him, investigate his immigration status, and (if he's found to be an illegal alien) deport him?
If the authorities found probable cause to believe he was the guy who robbed the 1st National Bank last month, wouldn't they send an officer to see him, arrest him, and put him on trial?
Of course they would.
Why are illegal aliens getting a break?

Over half of new California drivers licenses go to "undocumented immigrants"
By Jeremy B. White

More than half of the driver’s licenses California has issued in 2015 have gone to residents living in the country illegally, reflecting the success of a new law extending licenses to people regardless of residency status.
A new California law offering licenses to undocumented immigrants has proved enormously popular. Nearly half a million people applied for those licenses between the start of 2015 and early April, exceeding the pace of California Department of Motor Vehicles’ expectations for 1.4 million applications over three years.
The number of applications from undocumented immigrants ballooned to 687,000 as of June, and immigrants in California illegally have outpaced other recipients. Of the 759,000 total licenses the DMV has issued, 397,000 – or 52 percent – have gone to the undocumented. More than 1.1 million undocumented immigrants have taken the written test, and another 436,000 have taken the driving test.
“I think it was a surprise how many people actually came in in the first six months,” said Jessica Gonzalez, a DMV spokeswoman.
While the surge initially meant customers faced longer wait times and had difficulty making appointments, Gonzalez said those logistical issues have eased as the initial rush subsided and the DMV made more appointments available to people who are renewing licenses and registering vehicles, rather than filing initial license applications.
