    This is far from a simple issue. We have built ourselves a way of life that entirely revolves around having access to a car. Taking away someone’s car is akin to taking away their legs. Saying that they aren’t allowed a license to begin with is a prison sentence.

    I suggest that we need to make changes to city development that allows for alternate modes of transport such as walking and biking. Not just paths and sidewalks, but building the places you need to go closer to where you live.

      I’m all in for reducing car dependency, my friend. I was just stating the obvious, because that’s how licensing already works. I understand that we can’t raise the bar arbitrarily high until only stunt drivers are able to pass, and we didn’t define what a “bad driver” is anyway.
