No one is teaching these CHILDREN how to properly drive a two ton or larger vehicle. There is no drivers education. It's a mater of money. Teen deaths have risen since the early 2,000s when drivers education was removed from the school systems. Way back in the day there was a classroom course, parking lot course, road course, then you got a learners permit. After a certain amount of supervised driving by an adult you took a driver's test and got your permit. Now it's pay and go.
