    That’s brilliant.

    I cannot believe my license lets me drive all sorts of vehicle sizes that can outright crush/kill, right off the bat.

    But to operate a forklift or ride a motorcycle that is more likely to kill myself? Nah gotta have a license.

      Not to mention the massive loads they can haul which basically turn them into semi trucks, vehicles which you would in fact need a special license to operate, with worse visibility to boot. Way too many people out there hauling ridiculously large campers and sometimes even towing an extra vehicle at the end of their train with zero special training to do so.
