    The title is a bit ambiguous. It is about a driving license, not a software license (such as the already existing European Union Public License) or any other type of license.

        I’m still at awe how we are living in post-reddit times, where a title can just be changed. Just like that. How many untrue titles and straight lies were posted back then on Reddit and it was just accepted as a fact that once a post ist up, it can never change its holy title. Like it were not technical possible. They decided to feed uneditable lies and florished from that. BUUUH REDDIT.

    Can they standardize some kind of ice road driving experience requirement if you are driving somewhere it gets cold in the winter? It’s a constant problem with people who have never seen snow before racing around like maniacs on slippery ice roads in the Nordics, often with summer tyres. Both cars and heavy lorries from central and southern Europe often crash in the winter, and they’re always surprised at ice being more difficult to drive on than plain asphalt. There’s a reason it’s an obligatory part of driving education in the north.

      I can get behind that, living in the mountains in Central Europe, we inevitably get the same drivers. At best, they get stuck and create traffic.
