Uninsured Illegal Immigrant Drivers

    Illegal immigrants are driving without insurance, and it could cost you thousands of dollars.  A Sapulpa mother was driving two children in the backseat, when another car slammed into her car, totalling her car.  The other driver was an illegal immigrant.  He didn't have insurance, he was drunk, and he had done this before.  
 
    Paige Harp had her car for only three weeks before the accident.  She had already started planning the new life she have with the ability to apply for jobs and drive to work.  
  
    Harp said, "I was so excited the first week I had my car.  I probably filled out 20 applications to different places.  I got a call right after the wreck for my first job interview."

     Paige is stuck with a bill for more than $1,500 that she doesn't have.  She had insurance, but her insurance did not cover the uninsured motorists.
 
    The man who hit her was an illegal immigrant, driving drunk without insurance.

If being an illegal immigrant, hit and run accident with a DUI, and probably no insurance is not reason enough to deport one of them then what does it take? Paige Harp, i think you should sue the ICE and i hope that i am one of the jurors and you will get more than enough to fix you're car. This is not a Baseball game where 3 strikes you're out, it should be one strike and illegal alien YOU ARE OUT.

Until you get rid of that carrot which brings them here they will be with us. That carrot just happens to be the greedy employer who reaps the enormous revenues generated by taking advantage of the cheaper labor while letting society fund their existance in this country through all the social programs they take advantage of. It seems the illegals are immune from the laws that you and I are suppose to abide by. Approximately 20 million in this country are unemployed while 17-20 million illegals take the jobs that a large percent of these unemployed have done in the past. Greed greed greed. Until people take a stand and say enough is enough nothing will ever change. The illegals thumb their noses at the law because they know the worst thing that can happen is to be sent home, and they can change their name and be back in this country within a few days. I personally want the immigration authorities to start apprehending the employer and hopefully that carrot which brings the illegals here will soon dry up. No jobs, no illegals.

a mexican is like a cue ball, the harder you hit them the more English you can get out of them. Anytime they pick up an illegal for a traffic infraction put them on a chain gang fixing the roads they like to drive on and we'll see if that fixes the problem-let us say...a year per infraction.

I have a friend that was hit like this lady was, he wasn't drunk but was an illegal alien with no insurance. the officer asked him his name, wrote it down and let him go. Turns out it was a false name.My friend had to turn it into her insurance to cover the repairs. Crap like this happens everyday, but yet, our government says they can collect welfare, and we have to print everything in a spanish copy to accommadate them. Thats crap, If Americans move to Mexico, they are required to learn spanish, and are held responsible for any bills or debts they create, why isn't America the same way.?

I think it was last year that we gave Mexico 4 Billion in aid for there welfare. We need to take that from them to deport EVERY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT.
