The licenses are absolutely required in the more sparsely populated areas in Europe, going without license is only possible in major metropolitan areas.
Europe just places a relatively high bar for driving skills. You do see the outcome in road safety and much more orderly driving behaviour (with the usual caveat that Europe is diverse and this applies more to some regions than some others yadda yadda).
- angry_octet 6y agoOmg this is just a ridiculous statement. Germany != Europe. I've driven in many countries and Italy had more than an equal share of near death experiences.
- distances 6y agoI was hoping my caveat would cover exactly this. The parent comments were talking about Germany and Sweden, and I can promise they are not the only countries with decent driving.
- nicbou 6y agoYep. The US is a much nicer place to drive than Italy, particularly Sicily. The craziest one was Azerbaijan. The drivers there are straight up murderous.
