Maybe joke driver licenses, no vehicle inspections and joke technical requirements are to blame? You can get a license after self declaring doing the "course" with your dad and taking 10 minute round around School parking lot, and them go ahead and legally register LS engine strapped to a shopping cart. Mah freeeedums etc.
Are there state border crossings doing additional inspections I am unaware of?
Just to make a more concrete example, washing out salvage title in Oklahoma comes down to showing up at the DMV and getting a stamp.
>Change of classification. Vehicles over 10 model years old may go in to, or come out of, salvage at any time. _No inspection is required to bring such vehicles out of salvage_.
>Out-of-state salvage titles. Vehicles over 10 model years old entering Oklahoma with an out-of-state salvage title may receive either a salvage title or standard (green) title with a salvage date listed.
For comparison in Germany you can lose registration title for mounting non TÜV certified spoiler/bumper/hood.
New York has a much more difficult road test, but nothing to the level of a British one. Coming from NY, I always thought it was ridiculous that you could be licensed without showing that you can drive in traffic. But it’s not like New Yorkers have a reputation for good driving, so it’s not a big part of the solution.
Can you describe drivers license procedure in your state?
Is there a state licensed drivers ed training course required? How long is it (hours) and what is the division between theory

basic vehicle roadworthy check - fluids, lights
pre drive preparation - setting up mirrors/seat/headrest, fastening seatbelts
