I hate to say it but drivers tests dont prove shit. Everybody can practice for a test and pass. The problem is that people are breaking the law, and doing it knowingly. Cops need to punish more often and make fines real stiff if they want to get the point across. My friend got pulled over doing 95 in a 65 zone and had to pay a 350$ ticket. THATS IT. IF he got his license taken away, maybe he would learn his lesson. I hate to be the bad guy, but i see so much stupid shit happen without consequences. Assholes need to be punished for thier actions.
Hmmm... maybe not in the UK, but if you're an English or American tourist in France who commits a car-related crime, it's more than certain that the French police will nick off with your license.
