My dad had some training at FLETC, and when it was time for me to learn, he taught me a lot of stuff, but he never told me everything. When I mentioned that I think kids should take advanced driving like skid control, taking corners at high speed, and really learning how to control the car, he said he purposefully didn't. He was afraid I'd go out an drive the car to the maximum and kill myself or someone else.

I agree a little bit, but, I really think driver's licenses should be more skill based. You should have to complete an aggressive course that includes accident avoidance, "kid coming between parked car into road" wake-up call ( "kid" jumps out and at 35 you don't have enough time to stop ), high-speed braking, skid recovery, slalom, rapid lane change, placing your vehicle in a spot with just 6 inches space on each side, proper left lane use and etiquette, teaching how your single actions affect those around you, and how to increase traffic flow efficiency with small changes.
