The idea behind breaking it up like that is so they can gradually phase it in, without overloading the system. Ten year breaks are convenient. A few years ago Oregon phased in requiring boaters to get a license the same way, starting at 18 or 21 then 30, etc until everyone was covered after the 4th or 5th year of the phase in and it worked fairly well.
