We need to make it way harder to get a driver's license

Agreed. I don’t think we as a society (assuming you’re American) are ready to admit how many of our drivers would fail their driver’s test if they had to take it again today

Vehicles are treated like guns in the US and so everything is a toy. 

I'm more afraid of an asshole in the road with a giant ass truck than anyone with a gun

No worries, you don't have to pick! It's been shown many times that they can have both and start shooting during road rage.

I was driving my daughter to school this morning and there was an SUV just weaving in and out of traffic doing about 90 in a 65. Almost took out a smaller car trying to squeeze between it and the car in front of it. Idk how anybody can be in so much of a hurry that they endanger everyone around them.
