If they are so dangerous, shouldn't they at the very least require a stricter driver's license?

Things like “danger,” “skill,” “knowledge,” and “safety” aren’t really part of license exams in the US. They’ll pretty much just give a license to anyone here, literally.

It’s actually one of our bigger problems (it has big implications on safety, infrastructure, urban planning, &c.), but not many people really care. Cars are too deeply associated with “freedom” and “success” and individuality; for a lot of people I’d say they might be the biggest icon of America after the flag.

Yeah that's not a thing here. I have driven a 26ft moving truck from a rental company with nothing more than a rental form signed.
