Honestly, every licensed driver should have to retake a test every ~5 years.
And the DMV should charge an arm and a leg for it, because they otherwise can’t handle the traffic
And the test needs to be way, way harder than it is now. In my state you just drive around the block and then parallel park. No highway driving requirement, no emergency maneuvers, no reaction time test.
Even recreational air pilots need a retake every 2 years, and they aren’t a top 10 cause of death.
Make it yearly.
Make it yearly.
Imagine that DMV line! You’d have to book next year’s appointment at the conclusion of your test. Heaven help you is you have to reschedule. Haha!
That may actually provide some impetus to properly fund them so that they can fulfill their agency mission, then.
Most of them don’t have the resources and access to the professionals they need to get it done. Sure, self-serving managerial incompetence really doesn’t help to move projects along or retain talent either.
