We cannot be the land of the free w/o also being the home of the brave. Freedom is dangerous and risky.

I disagree completely. Driving is a privilege, NOT a right. This is not about personal freedom. Just like some people should not be able to own a gun, some people shouldn't be allowed to drive.

Getting to that point in a responsible manner is the tricky part. It cannot be about financial or social status. It needs to be purely about competency; just make the damn tests actually reflect skill. Of course, there's not really a good alternative if we take away DLs from a bunch of people since the public transportation in this country is piss poor. So we're kinda past the point of no return. Maybe covid will change that since so many people are now working from home - stay there!

I know of a few that don't need a license. Those are the fools doing stupid stuff in town with many people around. What are they, just morons?

Also, zero motorist deaths as a goal is just a distracting ignorant and irrelevant answer to a difficult question. It's not possible to achieve and that effort should instead be directed towards understanding the factors for motorist deaths and finding better solutions to mitigate those factors.

Fuckin extremism is so damn rampant in this country. All or nothing!! It's a stupid mindset and starting to really piss me off

To the extreme mind you

Plus it’s sort of the halfway point between zoren and EW and only an hour for me and a couple hours for spoiler.

Seems like a good spot, or maybe viera, that’s right off 95 as well and wifey and I know of some good eats there too.
