Could you pass a drivers test again?

How about this fantasy: 38 million fewer drivers on the nation’s highways?

That’s what we’d lose if all licensed drivers were required to take and pass a written drivers test, according to GMAC Insurance.

The company administered a 20-question test to 5,202 drivers. Pennsylvania drivers finished 39th in the U.S. with an average score of 75.8 percent (70 percent or higher is passing); but 25.3 percent of Pennsylvania respondents failed.

Why is that not surprising?

Overall, the results show that 18.4 percent of licensed Americans — or about 38 million drivers — would not pass a written drivers test exam if taken today.

Kansas ranked first with an average score of 82.3, while the bottom state, New York, had an average score of 70.
