cars

Why is the driving test so easy, I think you can kill up to 5 people and still pass. I mean, it’s been ages since I took mine but I doubt it’s changed that much. I’m shocked that anyone manages to fail it somehow.

I used to work at the FAA and having taken and given tests for pilots, I much prefer the model where you’re required to actually know what you’re doing instead of licenses being handed out like candy.

Also should we add air brakes to cars for shits and giggles? I used to drive a bus and those pieces of shit were always a doozy(ie?). And stop trying to pass the bus with insanely dangerous maneuvers; how do we curb driver entitlement?

And another thing, at least when I took the test, to get a CDL you needed to commit the pretrip inspection to memory and recite it word for word, and you fail if you use a checklist. Really epitomizes the DMV - meaningless hurdles that don’t actually improve safety but makes them feel like they’re doing something. For FAA tests you fail if you don’t use a checklist. So the DOT has two diametrically opposed philosophies regarding inspecting vehicles prior to usage.
