Yeeeah no. Not without an upside. Dump the speed limits and we might be able to talk

I have always been a fan of graduated licenses. Pass the highest level and get a blue license plate that says you can drive as fast as you want...

Anyhow I am not suprised at the study and you guys know how easy our testing requirements are now right? 25 questions, parallel park and you walk with a a license here.

So how many would fail if they used a real proficiency test? Had a decent quiz?

After maybe 5 years, speed limits and other things could be looked at once we knew that people actually knew what the fuck they were doing on the roads.
