with how poorly they have ****ed up the motor voter registration system in california where thousands of illegal aliens have been automatically registered to vote due to a "glitch" in the system, I would be afraid of a patient getting the wrong treatment from a similar "glitch"...
" I went into the doctors office to get a mole removed but the computer said I needed my right leg amputated and the doctor didn't argue with the computer"
Not to mention the strong-arm BS with zero flexibility.
For example, some woman backed into my car in a parking lot a few years back. about 2 weeks later I got a letter in the mail from the BMV demanding I come in and show proof of insurance. I called them and told them I already provided proof of insurance to the cop who took the report, AND the BMV when I renewed the tags.
their response was, doesn't matter, bring us your papers. I told them I could bill them for my time, or they could google the insurance company phone number and call them on their own, get bent. After all, they already have my policy number and every other bit of personal information required. A month later, a letter in the mail informed me that my license was suspended.
Defiant, I refused to address it further. I just kept driving, I'm all legal otherwise and have insurance. F**** em'.
About 2 months after that, for some unexplained reason,, I got another letter stating my license has been re-activated. I still have no idea why.
so yea, let's put this all in the hands of government and employees who mostly don't give a single damn what you actually need. After all, you are here to kneel when they demand it... or else.
