Don't be offended if I don't reply. I'm not intentionally rude. Just very unorganized when it comes to email.

English-only Drivers Test
This is why we need a national language:A bill that would force people to take the Tennessee state driver's license exam in English would make the state vulnerable to a lawsuit if it becomes law, some groups said.Where does it stop? We have people from dozens of countries living and working in Tennessee. Some would have us print every government form in every conceivable language, and make every government service available in the language of choice."It comes down to discrimination," said Janice Snow Rodriguez, executive director of the Tennessee Foreign Language Institute. ...
In other words, if confronted with a lawsuit, the state would have to prove with numbers that drivers who do not speak English get in more accidents.
This is America. If you go to all the trouble to uproot yourself and probably your family, learn the language. Millions of immigrants have done so.
