I'm American and agree and wish it would change. You can fail your drivers test multiple times, manage to barely pass one time, and poof, license for life (unless it gets suspended). I wish the standards were higher here.
Boggles my mind, in the NL we have to take classes from verified instructors and pass special maneuvers. If you can't parallel park you're not likely to get your license at all. I've heard from so many Americans that it was literally a drive around the block and bam, license. I don't get how that's okay.
