RETESTING DRIVING SKILLS BEFORE RENEWING LICENSE

In Modesto, California, many people were to retest their driving skills before having the right to renew their license. But Sheboygan, Wisconsi, it is the other way around, where people are able to renew their license after it has expired. With no experience on the wheel, as I watched other people drive, it has discouraged me to become a driver. One thing is I am afraid of car accident, having to see some friends who have had a hard time because they had experienced a much dangerous accident. I am not totally confident with my view, but Sheboygan, Wisconsin should enforces all their drivers to retest their skills before even having the chance to renew their license.

There are many reasons why Sheboygan, Wisconsin or even the whole Wisconsin should enforce the law because there are some speeding driver on the street and on the highway that has never been caught by the cops. For example, once, on the highway 23 going to Fond Du Lac, my family were traveling to Oshkosh, and a random guy in a red car was speeding maybe 20 or 25 miles more than the speed limit had asked. He was trying to pass my family's car, almost crashing into us. Before he even tried to pass, a car was coming from the opposite side, as his car started to switch lanes, as soon as he saw another car approach him from the front, he went back to the the original lane, almost hitting my family's back headlights. If my sister did not speed up, we would have been in a car accident.

Another reason would be that most people would not even follow the direction on the street. Such as the speed limit, and going up to 90 on a 65 speed limit street. Some people would not even stop on a STOP sign, and on a RED LIGHT. Making me remember of an accident that occurred in middle school, my brother, mother, and I was talking about car accidents in the car. As we were driving, a family was crashed by a driver, who was both speeding and had crossed the lights. My heart beated hard, afraid that it could have been us.

But even if I think about it, people can prove that they are a good driver to the DMV. Which means if those dangerous driver can pass the testes, there is no point to enforce such a law.  And there are some good driver, who becomes the victim of a dangerous driver, who may get their license taken away because they did not pass the test. I have many opinion to this topic, but I have to really look at the facts of dangerous driver. I still feel that it would be good to enforce the law.
