And another bad driver will not be looking at the road and plow into multiple people.

Here’s a source from People magazine.

Drivers involved in the crash suffered bumps and bruises but no life-threatening injuries, [Fox 8] reported. Their vehicles were extensively damaged.

That’s great ODOT put out a psa not to do this. Could they put one out about people swerving into the exit lane way after the exit.

Why didn't they just take people's licenses when they do something like this?

Because we live in corporate dictatorships and fossil fuel corpos made everything car-centric. Now we have to allow the negligent and incompetent to drive or else we'll damage "the economy".

This is true, but it's more than the economy. While driving is a privilege, we've created a world where living without it is incredibly difficult and in some cases impossible. While it could hurt the economy it also starts to become a cruel and unusual punishment, even though it shouldn't be it is due to the car centric environment society has created.
