Well... if the program is done properly, they'll find out very quickly that they are a lousy driver.

Even when it is something as simple as traction management -- every year when there is packed snow covering the streets, I'd see idiots gunning their throttle, and wondering why their car isn't moving.

A testing fee would obviously be required to prevent people from abusing the tests. If you have to pay money to get tested, and you fail every single time you take the test, you're gonna very quickly either find a way to improve and pass the test, or you give up altogether and stick to your crappy licence with the higher insurance costs.

Driving is a privilege, not a right, and not everybody is cut out to be a competent driver. It's no different than how not everyone is cut out to be a competent cook. If there are fewer crappy drivers on the road, it's a win for everyone involved.
