However, if the evaluation determined that the driver has a drinking problem, the length or number of the required education classes can be increased in some states.

now talk more to that mofo and see what he disliked about you and shit...

Since when do you "need" a licence to drive?

Do you know how to operate the controls of a motor car? Do you own or have access to a motor car? Then you can drive my friend.

Applying for a licence (for anything) is equivalent to asking permission. Since when do you need anyone's permission to do something that you want to do and are prepared to take responsibility for?

You may have an accident and cause damage to others, possibly resulting in death.

This is the part where you need a license, to keep dangerous drivers off of our roads so our children can play safe outside without the risk of a nutter mounting the pavement.

Carrying a licence around in your wallet isn't going to prevent an accident. Being prepared to take responsibility for your actions will (hopefully) prompt you to drive safely.

I hope you get caught. Can you get insured on a car without a drivers license? What about driving it on your own without a fully qualified driver riding shotgun?

That's a pretty stupid thing to say, the license just means you have proven you can drive safely and also that you understand the rules of the road. I would never get in a car with a pleb who hadn't learned to drive regardless of their intentions..

Can I come round to mend your boiler tomorrow? I'm not Corgi certified and don't have a fucking clue what I'm doing when it comes to gas pipes but I'm a nice guy all the same!

This guy sounds legit.

just remember you don't drink ANYTHING at all, ever, and haven't for sometime

Once. On the day you were examined. Same as an MOT. Having an MOT certificate doesn't mean your car is road worthy; it means that it was road worthy on the day it was tested. Same principle applies to driving tests and licensing. You demonstrated a knowledge of the rules of the road and an ability to make safe progress on one occasion.

Driving without a licence only becomes a crime if you're involved in an accident that was demonstrably your own fault.

Even if you're involved in an accident that's someone else's fault, you probably still have to show proof of license.

And then, BUSTED

^^^That's an awful lot of "if"s, "probably"s and unspecified "them"s for such a short post.

If anyone's seriously interested in what you "need" in order to drive a car I suggest you investigate the difference between common law and statutory law. You'll find that all you actually "need" is a working motor car, a knowledge of how to operate the controls of that car and functioning eyes and limbs to enable you to do so.

yaaay good news

my request for reinstatement requirements came back as Level I and not level II, meaning that I'm basically done with alcohol classes and I can get my license back in about 2-3 months

last night i was freaking out bad, glad i noticed this

Yeh fuck all exams!!
An MOT is checking the state of a car not the knowledge and capabilities of an individual, they are totally different types of examination.

The whole point of obtaining a driving license is the learning process involved beforehand. Your ability is then tested to see how much you have learnt and understand.
The license means you know about road laws, signs, legal manoevres on public roads etc, very little is to do with how to actually drive a car after the first 2/3 lessons.

Also if you got in an accident that wasn't your fault, I imagine the police would still want to see your license, certainly if you wanted to take any form of action (including claiming insurance which you can't get with having a license).

BTW congrats jsilver, stay strong man!

Wrong. Driving without a license is a crime. Full stop.
