Yes, I said revenue is the problem, always has been, and always will be.

Imagine, if you will, just for a moment, that to get a driver's license in the USA you had to...yearly...

1. Pass a strict written test 100%
2. Pass a strict drivers test 100%
3. Pass a strict spacial awareness test.
4. Pass a drug test.
5. Pass a hearing test.
6. Pass a vision test.

Doing that would take 50% of the people off the road in a heartbeat, and make the other 50% much better drivers. It would also fix 30% of our environmental issue, and probably 80% of our accident and insurance issue.

But it won't make the money, so it'll never happen.
AARP would never stand for that!
