The required training for a driver's license is a bit of a joke.
I'd rather a joke with a little training and safety classes to lower your liability insurance than the current solution of ignoring the problem
It is more than is needed for gun ownership. The arsenal I inherited required nothing. The one I have purchased required a 48 hour wait I think it was. In none of the cases did I have to prove I knew how to handle a firearm.
Do you really think requiring more training before getting a driver's license wouldn't be used to disenfranchise minorities?
Not necessarily no.
I would. They'd disenfranchise them in a heartbeat.
You can say that about every law.
Doesn't mean we should just stop improving the system.
It absolutely would but only by conservatives.
Sadly depends on the state. Would also love if we did more like other countries for driving instruction. Although would need more public transport before that would possible
