If you cannot speak or read English road signs you have no business driving a car in America.
THANK YOU! But oh noooo, in our backwards country God forbid we don't actually try to uphold laws. Laws are only meant for those that follow them and try to do the right thing everyday. Those that have a stake in anything. Those that can afford to lose.
How the hell did the woman get a license in the first place? Oh yeah, En Espanol.

There is no law that says you have to speak English to drive.
DALLAS — Dallas police Chief David Kunkle issued a public apology Friday after learning that a rookie officer issued a ticket to a motorist because she couldn't speak English.
"We don't have abilities to determine proficiency in any language, and we shouldn't be doing it in the first place," Kunkle said. "I apologize to the Spanish-speaking Hispanic community."

He should transfer to Arizona. I'm sure they'll welcome him with open arms.

And? Because she speaks Spanish we should deny her the right to DRIVE?
Sounds VERY un-American to me.
It's like laws are only good when it protects me and people like me. But if you are different, we should apply those same laws differently too.
It doesn't bother me really that she was driving, but for communication purposes, speak ENGLISH and if you don't know it then learn it! This would have been a non issue if she spoke English.
How does one pass a driver's test without knowing English? Oh, I know , lots of TAXES spent on printing the instructions in 800 languages to help "Americans" who are too lazy to learn Enlgish.
I bet that driver knew enough English to find a lawyer.
I know we have tons like this in Vegas, I'm sure Dallas does as well.
