The analogy made by the guy that got hit seemed appropriate. If you had a gun licence and shot someone, it wouldn't just be suspended for 5 years and then they'd give you the gun back.

Driving as some sort of a human right, does seem to override consequences of misuse in a way that seems strange when you compare it to similar things like that.
I was talking to a car-tuning friend recently about performance cars on the road. We actually ended up both agreeing that having ridiculously powerful and fast cars legal for use on shared roads is nuts when you think about it. But it's normal so there they are.

I don't understand why we aren't a bit more willing to ban people from driving properly. Driving while on a mobile phone? Can't be anything other than your fault/choice to do so = year ban or more if repeat offence. Purposefully cause someone harm using your car? Psychopath = no liscence for you.
