Subject: RE: Vehicle Safety
Increasing the requirements would help to a degree in preparing drivers for the open road but that doesn't change society and it doesn't change the peer pressure that some of these kids face. As we age we tend to forget how powerful the opinion of our peers can be when you are young. In fact "groupthink" never ends as a problem in our society from the boardroom to the school house.
What is my point? That increasing requirements might improve the driving skills of some drivers but it won't end all the problems that there are on the road. There are other areas that have to be addressed that the DMV can't control.
