I would have to agree with all the comments. I started driving truck when I was 18 and 20 years later I have seen lots to make me wonder. Someone being able to jump in and drive a big moterhome after driving a Honda is one, most have no clue to distance when they look in the mirrors, being passed or watching them back it up is always an adventure. Driving U-haul trucks moving,(Where did that limb come from??) Pulling Heavy trailers with pickups and no experiance is another, length, stopping distance, and in the case of trailer wander (sway)which is usually due to too much speed for weight of trailer. I am not saying the goverment should start wanting more licenses, just that maybe people should practice with someone with experiance before driving what they are not use to. I still remember some of the pointers I got when I first started and figure probably saved an accident or two. Just my 2 cents worth. Terry
