This isn't the issue. There are many people that can handle 'high powered cars'. It's not the car at fault but the person.
A lot more driver education should be mandatory before given the keys.
So perhaps they should have a licensing level akin to trucks and forklifts.
You're allowed to drive a standard scooter or 4 cylinder on a normal license, but need a further license and certain amounts of training for anything of higher power.
And like other people have said, why do we need these 'high powered cars' anyway? It's not like anyone can legally utilise them to their full potential unless they're on a racetrack or private land.
