Okay /o/, I had a rough idea of how we could reduce the amount

Dumb as fuck.
Just obey the laws, criminal.

i bet you've broken the speed limit many times before, and if you say no, you're lying
fucking retard

sorry, this is never gonna happen

If you break the law, you're a criminal. Simple as that.

It would honestly depend on how much the test/license would cost to acquire and how many people would actually be able to acquire one. If it's only like 10% of the population or less the impact wouldn't be that bad but you have a good point.

>The driver would take a series of driving and theory tests that when passed, would signify that the driver has exceptional knowledge and skill
In europe, we call that a 'driving test'.

well you obviously forget how much time and money is needed to implement a new law.

> discussion about whether to discuss about the law
> review if the law is coherent with existing laws
> another few rounds of endless discussions
> attemp small changes to the draft
> repeat

and even IF the law gets passed you would have an enormous rattail of other costs like the new training for police officers, driving schools and so on

on top of that, every new law will bring chaos to the streets due to the older drivers.
Ever seen a pensioner in a roundabout? it's purely random how they behave in there

aside from the logistical nightmare and excessive costs..
this is a terrible idea.
I'm guessing that you think you are somebody who falls in the category that could apply for a speed license. protip: you are probably not.
It's pure statistics. 85% of the people think they belong to the top-half of driving capabilities.
secondly, a speedlimit is there not only to allow you to have enough time to correct an error, it is also there to allow others to correct their error, and even is there to allow you to prevent a collision in case somebody else makes an error.
increasing the speed limit for you does not only affect you, and your safety, it also affects that of others. Perhaps even of less capable drivers.
If you want to reduce the amount of speeding tickets implement a system where you don't have to think about your speed because either cruise control or some automatic limiter does that for you. And you don't have to adjust for the erratic non-cc or deliberately slower vehicles.

*tips fedora*

tolled motorways where you purchase a subscription thats yearly and requires vehicle inspections to be able to purchase the subscription. if the vehicle is unfit the subscription is null. also any crashes youre directly responsible for any damages to the roadway. in germany you pay for damage done to guardrails or any part of the autobahn

because the theory above totally eliminates the usage of current driving tests

>>17758073
good points again, but all those things occur for any other new law or legal practice. Can't really denounce something because it would just take as much time to implement as anything else.

sure you are right.
But the reality is that politics is a short time oriented game. nobody whants to be responsible for something that costs more money than it makes in their period of office.

The only thing that can change that attitute is large number of voters you could get with that idea in your election programme.

take the topic 'global warming' for example.
nobody wanted to do something till a respectable sized group of people where willing to make their voting based on the partys opinion towards climate change.
the scientific data is there since the 80s. but now society has enough vegans in it, so its done.

Go to a track or get smart. If you get many tickets that means you are being stupid no matter what your imaginary special snowflake skill level.

Racing is for track or off-road. If want be stupid, no sympathy here.

Perfect idea.

But the special stickers should be front and back window slaps reading MIDNIGHT CLUB and the name of your favorite anime girl, with a peek of her face. This will discourage the majority of people from getting a permission to speed to ensure that it's slightly safer.

>>17757950
If you have
>exceptional knowledge and skill
you should be able to drive fast and avoid tickets anyway

>>17758213
>special snowflake skill level

the skill level needed to go 90 in a 60 is roughly "slightly below average" and the car quality level needed to safely drive those speeds is somewhere between "10 year old bone stock toyota corolla" and "civic hatch with a few simple mods"

speed limits are set low because of the sheer number of americans with driving skills and critical thinking ability "significantly below average" and cars so outdated, poorly suited for pavement, or poorly maintained that they, by all rights, should maintain a VERY extended stopping distance and never take a somewhat engaging corner going faster than 50mph lest they roll the fuck over.

go for a drive on an american highway and marvel at the shit some people think is normal, if not GOOD driving.

>if everyone goes at the same speed its safer who cares if it's a complex dance of squeezing through gaps if someone wants to change lanes
>i have a half car following distance so nobody can cut me off.
>actually three cars is the safest if someone wants to cut you off just speed up.
>blinkers aren't that important, just turn em on real quick for the cops. you were going to get in that lane anyways. nobody should be speeding up or slowing down suddenly so they don't need the indicators.

>>17758213
I don't get tickets and when the fuck did I imply that I wanted to use this to "race". I'm talking 30-40 kms over the limit max on the express, maybe more on the highway

>>17758230
this is pretty relevant
