Driver Education

Is it me or…do the drivers in any given city seem to be getting worse?

I think driver education should be required in all states before a license is issued. I know some states have mandatory classes in high school. Almost every time I drive anywhere, I encounter at least one bad driver. I try to think, perhaps they had a bad day. Perhaps they have car trouble. Perhaps I just got behind them at a bad time for them. Perhaps they are not comfortable driving the extra ten miles per hour to achieve the speed limit. If that was the case then we are doomed as the capitol city of Wyoming, because this town isn’t big enough to have that many “bad days”, “car trouble”, “bad times”, or that thirty-five miles per hour is just too fast for them. I think driver education might get traffic moving again.

But this is just my opinion. Feel free to have one of your own.

Terms and Conditions: I would love to read your comments and opinions. If you comment I require you to have an opinion of your own. Don’t just say “I disagree”. Why do you disagree? In order for me to learn I need to know why. I also ask that you keep a civil tongue. I speak only for myself. To paraphrase John Wayne as J.B. Books from the 1976 movie The Shootist, I will not be called names. I will not be demeaned or ridiculed. I will not be chastised for my opinion. I don’t do these things to others, and I require the same from you. We can have an adult conversation. DO NOT take as an example of adult conversations our governmental representatives. They are rife with junior high schoolyard spats. We are not them.
