When the Finns required everyone to pass Skid School before they got a licence, their accident and death rates went up. Same sort of perverse increase shows up everywhere a new technique or device—like bettter football helmets or pads—fools people into thinking their safety's being taken care of by something else. Which accounts for all the ditched SUVs after the year's first storm: people who think a truck will make them safe. The safest drivers are the ones who are constrantly thinking how dangerous it all is.girok66 said:Everyone should have taken performance driving class. This is not to advocate more 'street racing' but to let drivers know (1) automatically perform emergency maneuvers w/o thinking about it, (2) know their limits, and (3) if they used their car for the training then know the limits of their vehicles.
Something about the most common equipment failure being the nut behind the wheel.
