You're completely missing the point. Putting her in years of indentured servitude to the state and some third party contractor doesn't mitigate the chance that she'll hit you while driving uninsured at all.
In fact, while scrambling to get the money, she's going to be forced to make the decision often between driving and hoping she doesn't get caught, or not paying her fee and going to jail.
It's amazing that someone could read this horrible tale and can only see how it affects themselves. How much oppressive klepto-state will you support to prevent the slightest chance that the situation of the poor might affect you and yours?

We with wealth don't like it when radical wealth imbalance affects our lifestyles. We like to pretend that we earned our wealth purely through honest, good, hard work, and that everyone can be where we are if they just try. We also like to pretend that everyone gets equal treatment under the law, so why not subject that person to the same treatment I would be subject to?
