I disagree completely. Driving is a privilege, NOT a right. This is not about personal freedom. Just like some people should not be able to own a gun, some people shouldn't be allowed to drive.
Getting to that point in a responsible manner is the tricky part. It cannot be about financial or social status. It needs to be purely about competency; just make the damn tests actually reflect skill. Of course, there's not really a good alternative if we take away DLs from a bunch of people since the public transportation in this country is piss poor. So we're kinda past the point of no return. Maybe covid will change that since so many people are now working from home - stay there!
