Bad drivers; is it time to retake your test"



Every day bad drivers cause accidents on the road. Most of the time nobody gets hurt, there?s an insurance claim or two to fix a bent bumper and everyone lives happily ever after.

Now imagine the same car driver gets in his car the very next day and does exactly the same thing. It?s only a matter of time before he or she does someone some serious damage.
So what do we do" Do we let them keep on driving dangerously until it lands them with a ?death by dangerous driving? charge" Or do we say enough is enough after the first accident and make them retake their test"
