Oh man, I wish!
But seriously, when you get up to a certain point, you probably should be tested frequently for driving ability. More times than I can count, I've seen an elderly person drive as if they had absolutely no idea where they were going, change lanes nearly into some, and look generally lost.
So maybe more frequent testing among all ages to weed out the undesirables would be helpful.
Also, I admit I'm a terrible driver with other people in the car. Cellphones I can do with, but if someone tries to have a conversation with me while driving, it doesn't work very well.
