I reckon you should have to do more advanced stuff,
like how to control a skid. What you learn in driving lessons as they are is all well and good as long as nothing goes wrong.

yeah
but if anything useful about car control was actually taught, then loads of mouth-breathers would never pass their tests. And then oh fucking christ, what would we do, all people have the RIGHT to drive their fat arses everywhere and screw the safety of the rest of the population.

I know people who struggle to tie their shoelaces but have driving licences. Terrifying.
