When taking the license become more expansive a couple of years ago the traffic deaths decreased alot, now I'd guess it costs approx 1-200 dollars if you take it through a driving school, you can do it cheaper by having a parent or friend as driving instructor, but those who do seldom pass on the first attempt.

It generally costs a lot more than that around here...

Jeeze; it cost more than that HERE, back when I was a kid. Let's see, when I was 18, IIRC each lesson cost around $40US, and you had to take 6-12 lessons before you got your drivers' ed. certificate ...

... at which point you still had to get yoru actual liscense, which was yet more money (not to mention having to get a learner's permit before you could take those lessons in the first place). And the expense of providing a vehicle for your test (most driving schools would provide one of theirs, for about the cost of one lesson).

All told, it could cost from about $300US to almost $600US to get a license ... and that was nearly fifteen years ago. I wouldn't be surprised if it was $80-$100 per lesson now ... not in the slightest. That'd mean double those total amounts, mind.
