>nor is drivers education a requirement
This was probably the case when you learned to drive (it was when I did) but many (most?) US States are starting to crack down on this and require formal driver's ed in some cases. There's also a lot more restrictions on young drivers than there was when I was a young driver.
For the non-Americans, in the US each State licenses their drivers and they all have different requirements.
- Broken_Hippo 10y agoIt has been more than 20 years since I learned to drive and admittedly I'm only really familiar with Indiana laws, save for the last 3-4 years. And you are right, there are some vast improvements in the area, some a little ill-thought out. Most of these I've seen were increases in driving age, Requiring a longer permit holding time, more indepth written tests, and restrictions on either new license holders or teenage license holders. That said, I wasn't aware of cases where drivers ed was a requirement at all. Everywhere else it doesn't matter so long as one can pass the both the written and driving test.
