Universal Driver's License: Difference between revisions

Line 31:
** Granted, these are licenses for "anything he builds". Hopefully the building process includes him designing controls he can use.
* Hilariously averted in ''[[Akira]]''. The main characters make several attempts to use military vehicles they're had no training for & each time it goes more farcically bad than the last. The highlight is probably the tank rampage scene in volume 3, where not only do they knock over an entire neighborhood trying to get onto the main road, when they finally total the thing & try to make a hasty escape from the wreckage, they find out the hard way its smoke dischargers were loaded with tear gas!
* Averted in ''[[You're Under Arrest]]''. Natsumi starts with just a motorcycle license, and is explicitly shown having to take classes to get an automobile license (Whichwhich in a sane world the instructor would not have given to her, considering how bad her auto driving skills are).
** Which is mostly caused not by her being unable to handle the vehicle (she's a ''fantastic'' biker), but more by her irritation at the fact that the car isn't a bike.
* In ''[[Mahoromatic]]'', Mahoro once showed a full driving license, complete with every single type of civilian vehicle listed on it, from cars to different tonnage trucks to construction machinery to boats and ships, including even aircraftsaircraft. Much later in the series, she needs to {{spoiler|pilot a fighter jet}}; good thing she's licensed for it.
* In [[Daiakuji]], it is revealed that Satsu has licenses for small planes and boats as well as normal civilian cars.
* Sailor Uranus in the ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' anime. Sure, it's not strange for a 16 -year -old girl to be able to drive a car (although it is unusual in Japan), but a helicopter?
* [[Lupin III]] himself, as well as the members of his gang, can handle anything from a car to a helicopter to an experimental fighter jet. And on one occasion, the ''space shuttle''.
** His latest{{when}} TV incarnation, in the first ep.episode of ''[[Mine Fujiko to Iu Onna]]'', was able to adeptly pilot ''a [[Beyond the Impossible|rocked-propelled stolen Buddha statue]]''. Well, until Fujiko shot down its balloon-cum-float.
