If you are caught flying in a unsafe manner you loose your permit if caught again you go to jail. I think the FAA should issue a map that would clearly show all areas in the U.S. that would require a permit to operate a RC craft.
Registration isn't a preventative measure. Nothing is really going to stop a person from doing what they want. See post 899 as an example.
