Poor driving standards

When I worked for the Evil Empire, I had to take a driving test every 5 years to renew my company driving license. It was great, a day of fun and games at an abandoned Air Force training field, with pylons and sometimes deep snowbanks. A driving test on the way there and more on the way back. It was a really good reminder of how sloppy we get over time because if you failed the test you could severely hurt your career so you had to be good. I believe it should be the same for every driver... 5 year renewals should have a road test and a quiz ,,, and,,, classroom discussion of defensive driving ( which is never part of a normal driving test).
I drove in Alberta and all through the western USA where passing is allowed in any lane in most places. Sometimes there are signs that suggest slower moving traffic keeps right. BC has a lane law but the right lane is so rutted and rough it’s horrible to drive a sports car in, plus the idiots doing ten or fifteen under just slow everything down.
