B3TA fixes the world
Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

Get rid of endorsements and penalty points on driving licences.
Done something stupid/dangerous when driving? You lose your licence and have to retake your test to prove you are fit to control a fast moving vehicle.
Done that more than once? Caught driving without a valid licence? Then substantial fines will ensue for you due to endangering the lives of members of the public.
Still continue to be a twat on the road? Actually managed to injure or kill someone? Prison time.
And I'd go along with the idea that folk should have to retake their driving tests beyond a certain age... in fact, I think it should be mandatory for people to retake their tests once every ten years or so. People do forget stuff - important stuff - and rules do change. But we are so laid back about dangers of the road that when someone is killed due to the negligence of others the penalty is all too often a slight slap on the wrist and being let off to carry on as before.
