Dropping the requirement to prove one's abilities to drive safely will hardly improve the situation. Some people make it through the system and get a license due to blind luck or because they know how to play the system, but despite that it does manage to filter ouit a large number of unsafe drivers. And the roads are aready there because the government built them... and they stay there because the goverment maintains them. That takes money. Taxes.

I won't opine about the anarchist views... I'll just agree to disagree there. I dislike some aspects of the way goverment works now, but I still think it is MUCH better than no goverment.
