In many states you can train with a family member, and the application is 30-50 bucks. Not free, but you shouldn't operate a car without a license.
Colorado for example,
Complete a written test, complete several hours supervised driving, eye test, driving test, pay.
Could probably be done in a week then you're legal
I wasn't specifically talking about the US. The US has unusually low requirements, because when it's basically required to drive to participate in society, you have to set the bar low enough that the dumbest, poorest, most disabled, reckless idiots that definitely shouldn't be driving still do.
And yeah, obviously you shouldn't operate a car without a license except in emergencies, it's illegal. Is enforcement really that bad in the US that this needed to be said?
