It's nice to be apart of the responsible 10%

Well our system of roads is designed for just that. So where as most of the people on this board consider driving one of their passions and know what something like oversteering means, when they put the petal to the metal you have much less to worry about. The 91% is actually a significant number and not a number based on worthless driving laws. If all you do is put her into drive, throttle, brake and turn then I think the laws on the books make sense. Proof is in the pudding, how many SUVs you see in car accidents during winter snow because they think they are snow warriors and really have absolutly no clue how to control their vehicle? Subsequently, how many Mustang owners between the ages of 25-40 total their cars? I guarentee that number is much less then most other cars.

Things that should be added to driving requirements for a license:

1) A demonstration of knowledge reguarding how gears work in a car, possibly requirement to be able to drive a stick for further understanding.
2) Braking techniques in non ABS brake systems and another class of license that requires you to demonstrate braking techniques in ABS systems if you own one.
3) SUV Class license. End of story. If you wanna own the biggest things on the road you need to know how to control them and how they are meant to be driven. Mainly aimed at all those clueless soccer moms out there.
4) Staged licensing from ages 16-18. Becoming 16 and passing your drivers test does not mean you know how to drive by any stretch. Some states already have this and insurance rates are dropping and accidents are on the decline in these areas.
5) When you file for social security, your license should be revoked unless you can repass the road test.
6) Basic automobile maintence. The number of accidents from an underinflated tire having a catastrophic blow out and an unoiled engine seizing up need to be at aproximately ZERO. There is little to no excuse here.
