A "driving test" was never really about driving. It was just bureaucratic smoke and mirrors to justify another government department. Their only real accomplishment was establishing one's identity, so they knew whose licensse to suspend or fine, which they did rather well. Not sure how many people died or were injured in daily parallel parking, it didn't help anyone on the interstate.

I thought once you determined a drivers adequate eyesight, and basic reflexes, a personality test would be a more useful discovery, like how "explosive" one was with road rage tendencies, using the horn, tailgating, hogging the left lane when not passing, "teaching another driver a lesson", a rolling stop, one finger waves, texting while driving,, not using their blinker to signal a turn for other nearby drivers, littering, ignoring zipper merge, etc., all traits I suspect on the psychopath spectrum. biggrin


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
