Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
With no Driver's Education:
Licence at 16 (years old)
With Driver's Ed:
Learners permit at 14 1/2
Licence at 15
In Colorado, they just changed the law so that you must be 18 to get a license (I just slipped in in time). Before that though, you could get a learner's permit at 15 with driver's ed, and 15 1/2 without. Here, we require 50 mandatory hours of driving before liscensing (though you can easily cheat). You must also pass a written test (through driver's ed or the DMV) and a practical test (for me, both through driver's ed and the DMV). I imagine people will become better drivers here, as they will now be forced to spend 3 years on a learner's permit before being unleashed. (According to AAA the average person requires 5 years of driving to be at par with the general public)
Edit: And roundabouts: I hate them. Not so much because of anything they do to traffic as that they catch me off guard. I know of two in my area, one of which can actually be quite confusing the first one or two times through.
"Beauty is not in the face...Beauty is a light in the heart." - Kahlil Gibran
"The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves" - Victor Hugo
"It is noble to be good; it is still nobler to teach others to be good -- and less trouble." - Mark Twain
Great for keeping the traffic flowing and preventing jams...
The only probs are the odd one which isn't properly considered/built when you're the one waiting to squeeze into a seemingly interminable stream of traffic...
I just drove over 6500 miles in the US (Not Chicago mind you) and don't remember seeing very many at all - there were some in DC and very good they were too!
Oh, yes I forgot to mention something else that might have scared Azazel away. Until about 1999, there was no speed limit on the highways in Montana. My 6th grade english teacher was always telling us about his 100+ MPH drives around the city.

That no speed limit deal had only been around since the early 90's I believe. That is when the fed. government did away with the 55 MPH limit and let states make their own limits.
Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!
