Italian term or phrase: questo tema si è completamente avvitato
A lungo andare, tra l'una e l'altra cosa, i cittadini hanno cominciato a contare su queste forme di ritornante generosità, ragionando così: "Se il rischio di punizione è così basso, inutile sforzarsi di rispettare le leggi". Si è creato allora un circuito vizioso "abuso-speranza di condono-condono effettivo", nel quale questo tema si è completamente avvitato. "Abuso e condono sono divenuti [...] termini correnti, hanno preso dignità di lingua nazionale."

On parle toujours ici du permis à points et du comportement des Italiens face à cette invention.
Merci beaucoup pour vos suggestions.
