I don't think age has much to do with anything, so why do i see parents with their kids in the car speeding past me, more so on the motorways where speed is much higher. 20km more than limit in most cases, and have also noticed more older women speeding too. It should be more like other countries where they must have 40 hours driving school, making them get a parttime job to fund it and taking buses to get there. I would love to see a driving test every 10 years and most of you would hate that but it would weed out those who think they are dam fantastic drivers when they are not. How many people can honestly say they drive the same as if a cop was behind them, not many!! I driver 6 days a week in a large truck and constantly wonder why so many drivers want to take on a truck at the start of a merge, if the trucks in front then you would'nt want to be beside it when lane runs out would you, but theres a lot who put themselves there right in the trucks blind spot. thanks for your coments, great reading
