What other countries can you go to, break the law and receive the royal treatment?

This was actually necessary. I used to live in L.A. and every night on the news, some asshole would run over a pedestrian and not stop to render aid. For whatever reasons I don't want to speculate on, DUI among Latino people is super high already, and coupled with no licensing, it led to tons of hit-and-runs.
So the state, since they only had the power to license people, and the feds are the ones responsible for enforcing immigration law, did what they could, and allowed illegal immigrants to get licenses. Now with licenses they could get insurance, and not worry about having their cars towed if they had a broken taillight.
Overall it was not a bad idea, but it highlighted how bad the feds let the immigration issue get.
