They should give him an honorary license and plate for his car.

True story:

Examiner: "Your drivers license expired two years ago".

Me: "Proves that I am a safe driver".

I love this man.

I’ll bet he’s the type to build a solid home from scratch without inspection.

The UK is different that the US. I do know that you are not required to have a Drivers License. If you have one and had a suspension of it, you are screwed if you are pulled over. You get a Drivine while Suspended ticket, and they add on until infinity. If you just don’t get a License, the worst thing they can do is take your car to impound. They have nothing else to threaten you with.

IMO, a license is not required to travel in the common manner of the day. In 1880’s that was horse, horse and wagon or walking. In 2022 you can drive a car, drive a bike/motorbike, skateboard, or walk.

Tell me that the roads are safer with licensing, you know it is not true if you do much driving. How many wetbacks get away with DUI’s? All of them, they are not charged. The reason is, they don’t have a license.

Reminds me of my grandfather, back in 1970s Texas. He’d been driving way before there was even such a thing as a driver’s licence or even stop signs and lights. He paid no heed to any of that nonsense. My folks would only allow us to ride with him if he promised to stop at red lights and stop signs. :)
