Stricter gun regulations are a hot issue in the media, but the idea of stricter regulations to operate a vehicle on public roads receives little to no coverage.





What are NTs thoughts on this ?




Should we have harder requirements to get license?

Is the driving age in the States too low ? Should we it be raised ? If so what age do you think is appropriate ?

Some country require that new drivers wear a orange triangle or "P plates" on their vehicle to signify to others that they are inexperienced on the road. Should America implement a similar system ?

Should we have harsher penalties for those caught driving without a licence ?


Then there is the separate but related issue of drunk driving... are Americas intoxication laws too lenient?... too strict?

dank after paul walkers death i had some ideas about this.

some people like freedom but sometimes u need to limit freedom to save lies.

i think every car should have a control thats gps enabled that when u enter the public street and the speed limit is 35 you can only do 40. or on the highway if its 65 u can only go 70. it would be like a chip embedded in the car and if the chip is taken out the dmv would be notified.

and as soon as you hit non public road like ur driveway/ garage or an empty property or track all restrictions are turned off.

this would best way to limit deaths of car accidents but i dont believe people would want this because they think its "big governemtn"
 
Half the people on the road cant drive for ****

They need to make the driving test way harder.

IMO speeding isn't the biggest problem. It's people who have no awareness of what's going on around them.

Don't think you can raise the driving limit unless we had a better public transportation system.

We need some type of aptitude test, or something that can test your attention response skills.

Multiple DUI's, get em off the road!
 
Cars are specifically made for transportation, they're lethal at times due to human error

Guns... Well...

And I don't think we should ban guns either, just don't like this argument

Punishment to strict for a DUI/DWI? Ehh I don't think so, when you put yourself and others at risk you deserve to be punished.
 
Wouldn't be surprised in the future when cars will drive it self. Kinda similar to Minority Report.
 
We need yearly driving tests b.


Smh people need to use their signals.

this isn't the problem. What I would like to know is how the hell people that JUST got into the U.S and don't speak or know the culture get their license.

Gun control is just stupid.
 
comparing cars to guns??.....is this a real question?...

aware me of when i can hop on my ak-47 to make it in to work in 5 minutes.

A majority of the drivers are either selfish and put people in risk around them to get to where they want; unaware of the basic rules of the road like you said; or a mixture of both.

It shouldn't be that way... it shouldn't be a ******g MAJORITY.

Getting a driver's license is basically a formality that happens in American life. It shouldn't be that way.

Not necessary to compare this to gun control though.
 
The driving test in Nashville is LITERALLY to drive up the street, turn around in a parking lot, and drive back down the street. Test complete.
No parallel parking, no 3 point turns, no interstate driving. Just up the street and back.

I think things like this need to change. They need to test and see if you can actually drive before just handing out licences
 
they need to dumb down cars more... all these gadgets make the driver not even really pay attention anymore..
lane departure sensor, you dont even need to look over your shoulder any more
cruise control radar sensor, you dont even need to brake or step on the gas just steer
