Old people bickering.
Love to watch a good fight with no outcome.

Maybe she was from England or where people drive on the left side of the road????

I suspect that the fraction of people who drive after being told not to is far greater than the fraction of people who rob banks.

:bigbow:

I expect you are right.

So, you decide that taking a test to be able to drive is punishment, and then use that punishment for an argument against taking tests. Okay.

Taking tests is a punishment. I will have to think about that for a while. It changes everything.

And personal responsibility. Yeah, no more driver's licenses. We can just trust everyone to drive safely and if a few people get killed, well that is the just the cost of freedom.

Welcome to TV. Been here 4 years and have seen 4 ther similar incidents. Still wouldn't go back to snow and ice.

It Gets Worse
 

People in TV can have their driver’s license revoked, be declared legally blind or deaf and still drive a golf cart on the streets.

Driving 80 and over
 

License is renewed for 6 years when you are 80 and over.

This is why we have so many old people moving to Florida. License is good for 10 years.
:pray::pray::ohdear:

Had a friend that was legally blind, couldn't see the greens so we had to line him up.
Annnddd, you guessed it, he still drove to the courses and home.
:ohdear::ohdear:

Mine is only good for 9 years.
:shocked::shocked:

rights, many think/feel that rights are able to do anything they want until they get caught, and then its someone / something else's fault? reeks of entitlement, or ODD. . .

However, what the free license versus testing by govt comes down to is whether the government wants to be proactive or reactive. Government is inherently reactive, ie, your are innocent until proven guilty. we all love that, because the alternative is a negative proactive stance by oppressive governments.

the legal system is reactive, so yes, a proactive testing system is ideal for safety, but is expensive and somewhat counter to the concept that you are innocent until proven guilty. Why? people have twisted the concept of innocent to be interpreted as a right or an entitlement, but that argument doesn't stand up in a court of law, most times for the average non billionaire.

I reacted negative in my mind to Grumpy once because he disagreed with me, and I know that he is still wrong :boxing2: as he typed theory versus reality in my little area of knowledge, but, I read and learn from his comments, because he knows more than i do in many more areas, and I can learn something from everyone, thankfully. . . I am not so entitled to believe that bbs board members can't disagree with me or can't know more about topics than I do, ie, i don't take his typing personally . . .

Save us all
 

Laws help us interact with others of the human race in safety. We would need no laws if only one person lived in one place. But the reality is the population is booming in TV. Laws are needed.

Since that is the reason we have laws, you have to know that the mentioned driver can’t function with driving privileges and others. I pray for the good of all she is removed from the roads soon.

It wouldn’t be a sin to have all drivers tested every 2 years after receiving the first SS check.

I agree with you.

Sadly laws are hard. Some are unenforcible, some are selectively enforced, some are unconstitutional and push a narrow agenda, and on and on. Eventually, people no longer obey the law because there is little to no deterrent. And it is sad that there has to be a punishment to get people to just get along with each other.
