It is apparent to me that over the years, drivers forget the rules and become unsafe. If they cannot remember to use their turn signals, stop completely at traffic signals and use general caution, then they should be made to retake driver’s education. This could be tied to lower insurance rates, etc. It would also generate a little more revenue and discourage driving/promote other alternatives (like walking/biking).
