At least in the US. Hopefully other countries do better.

    Not only that, but the most common area to train in is the very same roads everyone is using. There are no facilities where you can go and learn under controlled conditions and supervison, for most people you near the end of your teens and an adult gives you some keys after you past a written exam.

      Well, depending on your location. In the North East U.S. you definitely can take a professional driving course. There is a program called “In Control: Crash prevention”.

      I first took that class as an EMT through my ambulance job. But, it is open to the public. I brought my 17 y/o son to the class shortly after he got his license.
