Driving skills

I don't think it would make the blindest bit of difference. I firmly believe that people have to leave the planet somehow, and some have made the bargain to leave via motor vehicle accident (whether driver, passenger, innocent bystander, other vehicle driver/passenger etc). Regardless of any initiatives designed to reduce the road toll, it has continued to rise in direct proportion to the rise in population - and will continue to do so as the population increases. Even single-vehicle, single occupant versus tree/wall/truck accidents have their own name - vehicular suicide - and nothing anyone can do will prevent them from happening. And if you manage to prevent all vehicular accidents, these souls will simply find another way off the planet - you cannot prevent that from happening, and you simply cannot stop all people from dying. And before anyone says "but it's different when it's a family member who died/was killed" - I've lost family and close friends to motor vehicle accidents - one to vehicular suicide - and it has simply reinforced my belief that if someone is determined to die, there's nothing anyone can do to stop them - and no amount of making Defensive Driving courses compulsory will change that.
