On: Doomsday planning for less crazy folk

Aren't first aid kits mandatory in cars in the US and don't you have to get first aid training as part of your driver's licence?

[maxerickson → adrianN]

No and no.

Do note that the licensing is done at the state level, so there are 50+ similar standards, not just one.

[saryant → adrianN]

No. Even a driving test isn't necessarily required to get a driver's license. I never took one.

[Jtsummers → saryant]

That depends on your state. I took one for my first license but haven't had a driving test since when I've moved between states. I have had paper and oral exams since then, though. But that only shows I know the laws and rules of traffic, not the ability to drive.
