I don't know, I think I agree with him.
As of now they're driving without a license or insurance. They haven't been tested.
Let them get licensed, which requires proof of insurance, and you reduce the likelihood that the next guy who smashes into your car is uninsured. There are many people here who, other than being here, don't have a wish to break laws and would rather have a license and insurance.

It doesn't solve the immigration issue, but it's not meant to. It's designed to address a concrete problem now while working on an immigration solution.
