So they're saying that it should be easier to be given a driver's license? I was forklift certified in a couple hours in a day. I had to drive for many hours over the course of a year before I was allowed to drive solo in a vehicle.

Plus I've never had to have an eye exam to be certified on a forklift.

The point they think they're making and the point they're actually making are two different things.
