    Drink idiots hit things in cars all the time.

    Make the test to acquire your license actually difficult to the skill level required instead of the “you can take two left turns and park shitty, here’s your license” level of difficulty that most states use for road vehicles.

      Dog if you make one mistake you can kill so many more people than in a crash. This is a horrible idea.

      I got my driver’s license when I was 18, after studying for the test and practicing for several months on a learner’s permit.

      Now I’m 40. I’ve never been retested. I have completely forgotten what’s on the exam. I’ve developed a whole bunch of bad driving habits, particularly with the advent of smart phones. And nobody is going to challenge my license renewal so long as I can pass an eye exam every 10 years.
