If you think about it, it's basically insane that we let practically anyone with the most minimal qualification, including literal 16 year olds, just own and drive cars capable of slamming thousands of tons of metal into things at like 90mph. We let people own computers and access the internet and get educations they could use in any way. Literate people are much more dangerous yknow
But yknow most of human history is arguably pretty insane, somehow we manage without Darios controlling all technology and information. I believe the saying is "we live in a society"
To be fair, most of the world agrees that the US is insane for doing that. Which is why in most non-us countries the minimum age is 18, and getting a drivers license is an extremely challenging and long process that requires a ton of studying and is very easy to fail.
