Yet driving is a privilege not a right so there are already fees on every exam you take, at least where I come from.
Personally I’m of the opinion that there’s no need to retest healthy working-age adults unless they have traffic violations… But traffic violations should trigger retesting more easily. Right now you gotta fuck up real bad to have your license taken away (after which you can get it back after a while if you pass tests again).
And once you’re in your 60s or 70s, we should start retesting and it should be mandatory. We do have mandatory health exams that go from 10 years to 5 years when you age, but they mostly test the sharpness of your vision and such. They don’t test how you actually react to things in traffic, or how good your peripheral vision is. There’s other stuff they test too, but I’ve forgotten it, been a few years since my last one.
It’s for public safety, so there definitely shouldn’t be fees. It should be covered with taxes.

That would mean a drivers license should be covered by taxes because that is also for public safety. Yeah no I don’t agree
I disagree that one means the other. Initial license is s privilege. Testing is for safety and we want to limit incentives to skip it
that sounds an awful lot like communism /s
wut, no, unless ur tests are litarally held in a commune, dumass!
