Drop Out Of School = Lose Your License

Like graduated teen driver's licensing, it sounds simple enough: if you want to get a driver’s license, you need to stay in school. Drop out, and you’ll either be ineligible for driving privileges or you’ll run the risk of having your license revoked.

Would you support or condone this type of legislature? Do you think it would stop people from driving without a license?

So, how does a ditch digger get to the job site? We're going to end up with poor people driving without licenses trying to get to work, burdened by tickets. And in states that require insurance to be licensed or register a car, and a license required to get insurance, you'll have lots of uninsured cars on the road with unlicensed drivers.

Expect local jails to be filled with violators, credit ratings ruined by fines, and court dockets clogged by these cases.



Hey government, stop trying to engineer societal outcomes, okay?

[jeikaB]

I don't think so. Teenagers a different. Some teenagers can break the law and drive without a license. On the other hand, I understand why the government pass the legislation. It only promotes education. After graduation, you're free to drive without your license be revoked, as long as you drive safely.

Thank god that hasn't happened yet!

CAVE CREEK – On June 9, Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office deputies pulled Jose Refugio Govea-Calderon over for a traffic violation in front of the Buffalo Chip Saloon.

Deputies soon learned Govea-Calderon had no valid driver license and was a Mexican national illegally present in this country.

Govea-Calderon was taken into custody and turned over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement while MCSO had his truck impounded.

But, yeah, 100% behind this statement.

Worst idea ever. It creates new problems without solving ANY existing problems.

[Dattebayo]

Stupid, stupid, stupid...

Look, the driving privilege has always been about $$$, not education. You pay money for your tags, titling, registration and insurance and for the car. Hell, you even have to pay tax on the car, too. You pay money for the emissions test (if you have that sort of thing). You pay money for tickets and for court costs; for your lawyer to keep your license should it come to it. What the fu*k does that have to do with education???

[sbird1]

Jesda hit the nail on the head. Terrible idea.

If the goverment pass the legislation of "no high school-no diver license-, then I'll hope this new law to be not retroactive, otherwise my uncle the firefighter can lose his driving privileges...and he is my preferred uncle, because he visits us very frequently and he is the one who teachs me a lot about science...

Driving is a privilege not a right. Get walking.

It is a privilege, but not one tied to scholastic performance. Other than the ability to read signs, school performance has zero applicability to driving ability. Get thinking.

I dunno. I can easily think of a lot of physics related material that is applicable to driving. Get schooled.

This is real life, not some controlled experiment. Get a clue.

[bigbadberry3]

So your life doesn't follow the laws of physics!?

Get a clue.

Get a clue.

You are trying to say that utilizing physics, you can drive better than you would vs. experience. Is that right?

[Razi]

Son, I got an A in physics and more importantly, was a master at Gran Turismo, and I still couldn't drive for s*** when I first got in a car.

[bigbadberry3]

You are trying to say that utilizing physics, you can drive better than you would vs. experience. Is that right?

No that is not what I'm saying. You will be a better driver with an education and experience.

[themadscientist]

Hyperbole doesn't suit you, I think you're a summer, try practical reality.

Even Physicists have trouble.

Unsupported claim is unsupported.

[Dattebayo]

You will be a better driver with experience.

Fixed. Education on things other than signs, colored lines and how far your supposed to stop behind a bus doesn't amount to jack when driving. Experience covers the rest.

[themadscientist]

Thank goodness there are no examples of race car drivers who dropped out of High School. What? Really? She's right behind me? Awk-ward....

Race car driver. Born Danica Sue Patrick on March 25, 1982 in Beloit, Wisconsin. Patrick began racing go-karts with her sister at age 10 and dropped out of high school to advance her racing career in England.

I unno things like why driving conditions affect stopping distance, what that weird sign with a truck leaning over means, what the heck is this abs light, I mean I never need to know what these things mean or why they exist, just that they do and they are magic.

Great you found one! That a boy err girl!

[Razi]

I wonder how many racing drivers even took a physics class in highschool.

I already showed you an example of a drop out who races cars for a living. And just for S&Gs here's another one. A.J. Foyt

To this day, and forever more, the name A.J. Foyt will be known as one of the greatest drivers of all time: Four Indy 500 wins; most Indy series victories at 67, most national championships at 7; most wins in one season at 10, and the only driver to win the Indy 500, the Daytona 500, and the 24 Hours of LeMans.


As A.J. grew he was completely consumed by racing. He dropped out of high school just months before graduation so that he could get a jumpstart on his professional racing career, which began in 1953 at the age of 18.

The idea that education is a prerequisite to driving ability is your assertion. It's your responsibility to support it. I believe the play is yours sir.

The analysis of speed, understanding force, energy and motion, experimenting with “mouse trap” cars and figuring out how safety applies to major super speedways are all a part of the curriculum during the first three days.

Professionals seem to find it quite important.
