I do think we should demand tighter controls on who gets and keeps a drivers license.
yep, that's what we need allright. more govt. red tape and regulations. :S

Ya , that would be crappy saving life’s :R
please summarize exactly what controls you would impose that would have prevented this incident. If a patrol man/sheriff, etc. would have seen this occur I would assume the driver would be cited for reckless driving. but again, how do you test for stupidity?

No idea , my point was just the fact of why not have some better guidelines, anything would be an improvement over who gets a drivers license , it’s pretty clear many do not belong behind the wheel , and get people killed . I agree it’s tough to regulate.
I'll go out on a limb and say you'd have to devise a test to somehow predict someone is going to be an idiot. It's easy to say "there ought to be a law"... much more difficult to figure out what that law should be. Last I checked we don't have machines to predict stupidity in the future.
I think the reason you have no idea is because there's no conceivable guideline that would prevent something as stupid as this from happening.
