Do you feel the same about the requirement to have a license to drive?

That is mostly about revenue for the state, along with tags.

Bull****.

What are tags for if it isn't just the tax stamp? If it was really
about identifying the cars there would not be thousands of designs,
making the state of origin virtually impossible to determine.

I never asked a word about "tags".

If the license itself was any kind of actual qualification document
the test would not be as superficial as it is and there would be
ongoing re certification. My mother received a new license after she
was dead, simply because she mailed in the check on her way to the
hospital. The last time anyone actually evaluated her driving ability
was that quick trip around the block and parking the car that passes
for a test.
My grandfather died in 1998 with a valid driver's license in his
wallet and he took the only test he ever had to take in a brand new
1919 Chandler. He had been driving for years but the company made all
of their drivers get licensed.

Okay, let's do away with tags, and driver's licenses. Someone rear ends
you, they just leave, no harm no foul, right?

They hit run you, and you get there plate number. Still hard to prove they
hit you legally.

Oh, horse****!!!

Hey, comments like "horse****" do little to encourage further fun stuff
from our lifelong fan of Crazy Zell Miller.

You mean the Zell Miller, who is a lot more successful in life and writing?

Yes, a LOT more successful than you! And he was bright enough to listen
and understand scientific data, unlike you. He was also a crazy
crackpot.
