I agree with that. I think cgod's argument is correct, and I think there's a solution: Instead of checking the car, take a test. Road signs, situation response, maybe virtual driving around the city. Same $50, reasonable result. You fail, you take some time and try once more, for another $50. Speaking of which... Personal finance is not the most popular activity even in the US, is it?And the driver still needs to prove they are capable of driving, by taking a test every 5 years.
There isn't anyone in the USA who cannot save $10/year. Or even $1/week for a year.
