We need to have tougher requirements to get a driver's license in the US as well. How about this?

1. You must prove that you are a legal citizen of the USA (birth certificate or proof that you have passed the citizenship test)

2. Must have lived in the country for 2 years prior to application.

3. Must at least have an high school diploma or GED.

With these requirements, it would clear up the roads a little bit..

Easy work-around: get a DL in your home country, then apply for an International Driver License.

It can take as long as 10 years for someone to become a citizen. How should the lawful, legal, permenant resident get to their job priot to becoming a citizen? (and permenant residents have gone through a loooong process and paid $$$ for that green card).

2. Must have lived in the country for 2 years prior to application.

How are the recent, lawful, legal immigrants suppose to get around? Immigrants are a vital part of our economy and our society. Shutting them out of a drivers license isn't economically sound or feasable if you want integration.

3. Must at least have an high school diploma or GED.

With these requirements, it would clear up the roads a little bit..

So no more right of passage, getting a driver's license at 16?
