Driving

Why is it that whenever you need to do something, they make it harder? My meaning behind this is that after the summer of 2004, they changed how many hours you need to drive to 40 hours instead of 30 hours. It is also true about other things, but this is one of the more important ones. Even though driving is very fun, if you are going over 60, this is not fair, especially to people like me who are not committed when they fail.

For poor people like me, we are not committed to driving because of traumatic experiences of driving in our pasts. For some, it is that they were in a car wreck, or someone in their family died in a car crash, so they are scared to drive. For others, such as myself, we take the roading test and very terribly fail for dumb reasons like stop signs. Why do they even have those?!?! Having these terrible incidents keeps us from driving, thus, never getting the extra 10 hours. If it was still only at 30 hours, we would be more excited about getting it done because it takes less time.

Another reason it should only be 30 hours for us to get our license. There would be more drivers, so we could drive our dying families to the hospital or to hurry to the store and get medicine for our parents that are slowly but surely DYING. This is not always the case, but it can happen. The world is safer having more drivers then because we can save lives by knowing how to drive.

Probably the most important reason for the people that decided this is that with more people getting their licenses quicker, they get more money, and start them paying insurance, so they government is getting money from us. Yes, this isn't so great for us, but hey, at least we have our liceses now and it is not like we care about insurance money. I sure don't. Its just part of life, but the country gets more money, they sell more gas, and stuff, and they are happy.

Even though that sounds silly, the gist of this is that 30 hours is better because we basically have the same amount of driving time in. But 20 to 30 hours is a big difference. I guess life just isn't fair.
