No, Washington Post, Driver's Ed Isn't The 'Main Cause' of Our Road Violence Crisis - Streetsblog USA
Briefly

Josh Max argues that better driver education can reduce traffic fatalities, citing his extensive driving experience and advocating for training akin to NASCAR drivers. He believes such training can address the human errors leading to accidents and urges a focus on driver education as the main solution to roadway dangers. However, he overlooks significant systemic failures and challenges the credibility of statistical claims surrounding the number of road fatalities, which complicates the argument for enhancing driver training as a primary fix for traffic violence.
Even setting aside a glaring error in the headline, which indicates the number of fatalities inaccurately, Max's suggestion that Americans should be trained like NASCAR drivers may be overly simplistic and problematic.
Max urges America to address the main cause of traffic violence, suggesting that better driver training could mitigate bad driving and reduce fatalities on U.S. roads, but the evidence for this premise is dubious.
