Maybe different license levels required to buy/own/drive vehicles with different capabilities ( size, top speed, etc). I go to the doctor, grocery shopping, eat out once a week, occasionally go to Ocala. For me to buy a corvette, mustang, Porsche would be throwing money away, since I very seldom have the opportunity to drive over 55mph legally.
FYI, Defund never meant get rid of, it was a stupid choice of words to describe what they wanted, which was to reallocate some funds to hire mental health and social workers to relieve the police departments and free them to fight crime.
