driving license RE: Bronco Busting or now I put my foot in it

["Avi Meron" <avi@cosmoslink.net>]

Are we back again on that "hog wash licensing bull"................
Stricter licensing rules do not make for better drivers, neither do stricter
tests make for better students, it is a subject that is been disproved a
million time. Case and point, in Israel they have one of the TOUGHEST drive
tests in the world + some of the most draconian road rules and they still
drive like maniacs in their small little econo boxes, I shudder to think
what would happen if they drove SUV.............
Let's not try to "rearrange all the road laws" a bit of respect and common
decency is mostly what is needed , not a series of "idiotic laws" that will
only make us try to go around them..........

Wrong. I hate SUV's as much as the next guy, but let the insurance
premiums dictate who can drive them. Also, everyone (not just SUV
drivers) should have to have more strict drivers licensing tests. Have
you ever taken one? Rediculously trivial here in the US, but then you
don't even need _any_ training to own a handgun.

BTW, I also ride a bicycle and an Audi is a behemoth from that
perspective, hence when driving one of my Audi's I pay special attention
that I don't hit a cyclist or pedestrian.
