A Change is Needed

An
exam is generally given to test the knowledge of an individual on a
certain topic. There are rarely any times where the passing of that
exa allows you to take part in actions which you only have knowledge
on, on paper. That is essentially what a permit test. You are being
tested on how well you know the rules of being on the road, without
ever driving on the road. This is something that doesn’t need to
change, but instead mist change. A parent who drives around with
their child can only do so much. The person behind the wheel is in
full control. For someone to be given that responsibility after
passing a test is truly terrifying for them as well as others.
Driving education should be instilled into all prospective drivers. A
prelude to the road ahead(pun intended), is something that has to be
brought up. A driver should not be only tested on how aware they are
of the regulations on the road, but as well as how to drive, which is
almost if not more important.

Along
with the restructuring of the system, the dangers of driving should
be highlighted. When you take your eyes off the road for whatever
reason, you are not only putting yourself in danger, but as well as
others. This also works the other way around. You must be aware of
those around you when driving, as you could be doing everything
right, but be in the wrong place at the wrong time. It is a privilege
to drive as well as an enormous responsibility. Educating others is
what will ensure we are all safe on the road.
