“New drivers have more collisions than experienced drivers.” Is it sufficient that avoiding collisions means you are driving well?
For example: A driver leaves a store to go home: He backs up without looking, palms the wheel, disregards pavement markings, stops over the sidewalk, doesn’t signal, passes too closely to parked cars without slowing down, changes lanes without warning or shoulder checking, races yellow lights, doesn’t stop or look when turning right on a red light, pulls into an up-hill driveway without setting the parking brake, realizes that he didn’t turn his headlights on and it is after sunset.
He did not have a collision thus he regards himself as a good driver. Is he? EXTRA MILE Driving School has served a countless number of G1, G2 and G licensed students in this category. |
