Date: 2022-07-15 06:39 pm (UTC)One thing that just, no pun intended since we're talking motor laws, drives me up the wall, is I haven't had a driver's test in over 40 years! Laws have changed, I now live in a different state than where I got my first license, my skills have changed, I've had cataract surgery, I now have three fused vertebrae in my neck, and as far as records are concerned I'm an 18 y/o as that's how old I was when I got my license. Now, if I ever moved outside of the USA, I'd have to re-learn and re-test, but that's not required here! Just ridiculous. When it comes to rentals, I always spend a good 5-10 minutes learning all the controls since there's no manual, I also go and purge the radio of previous contacts before plugging my phone in as no one else seems to do that.
