I'm with you on seatbelts, but drivers licenses shouldn't exist. You should be inherently able to drive and vote once you reach the appropriate age, and driving should be taught in school. The privilege to drive should be revoked only when you prove you can't drive properly or safely.
And how, pray tell, would you enforce a revoked driving privilege?
By ID, I didn't say get rid of social security or IDs.
Driver's licenses are actually an interesting issue. I am inclined to agree that they have no need to exist. All that matters is that people follow the laws surrounding the operation of motor-vehicles on public roads -- I'm rather convinced that licensing has no effect on this whatsoever -- after all, Ignorantia juris non excusat.
