  They already know.  It is called operator error.

  Fixing it would require that we actually test drivers and require that
they actually know how to fucking drive and follow the rules and laws
surrounding the task.

  About 40% of every driver on US (maybe worldwide)roads is incompetent
for the task.

  It should be required that a STUDENT (while the brain is still growing)
take 2 YEARS of driver ethics courses BEFORE the driver training course,
and BEFORE they are EVER permitted to actually sit in the driver's
position in the car.

  The problem is lame, lackadaisical governments that simply hand out a
license to any fuckhead.  Mainly so they can then use the retarded
piggery to suck cash out of the dopes that are so bad at it that they
actually endanger others.  So much for the safety of those of us that DO
know how to drive and DO deserve to retain a license to do so.

  About 30% of cops don't know how to fucking drive either.  The ones
that do only do because they listened intently to the instructionals.
