I think we need to prep our young kids to learn how to drive at a young age - this includes streets and highways. That way when they are older they are very familiar with driving and I think we as a country would see a signefacant drop in car crashes because people will be too familiar. I think people are driving when they turn 18 and get there lisence and immediatly start driving and are not familiar with what they are doing.

If we prep people at a very young age what it means to drive at 65mph then when they get older they will be knowledgable.

I honestly think 10 years old should be the new driving age - what you thoughts?

I live in Washington state and today I was on the freeway driving back home and I wanted to get into the left lane so that I wouldn't get off the exit that was coming up because the lane that I was currently on said that if I stayed in that lane, I had to get off that exit. So on the left there was an oversize load truck and I didn't see the van that was following behind and I got in between the oversize load truck and the van. I'm pretty sure you all know that when there's an oversize load truck, it usually has a van or some vehicle that follows behind it for precautions I guess. So I just want to know, am I going to get a ticket for being in the middle of the two? When I switched into that lane, I was only in for about 20 seconds and then got back out.

In studies of people between 21-65 who use their cell-phones while driving, the reports stated the behavior of the drivers closely resembled someone who had a .08 alcohol level(2 drinks) due to inattention, tailgating, swerving in and out of lanes, speeding up-slowing down, and lack of turn signal use

Reflexes of an elephant, breaking distances of a 1960's car, handles like a drunk walking a narrow corridor, MPG that keep us slaves to the pump, and that perception of being "safe", as if healthy LOOKING hair is actually healthy hair.

Another prime example of this falacy brought on by the media to induce fear in the public, that you will not be safe unless you have a vehicle the size of Montana.

People sue the auto companies when ABS first came out...they didn't expect even to get in a crash, or Cruise Control which was mistaken for "auto-pilot". Now we have whole new generation of safe drivers...on the cell-phone, fading in and out of traffic like a drunk.

Can you only be caught by one that is on the same side of the road as you? What does the fluorescent yellow side mean? Thanks

this might sound bad, but I never knew what a bad person I was until i started driving. I don't feel like that until I get in my car, then I just scream and yell and cuss people out. And lately I've become a racist driver too. I have plenty of friends outside of my race and even memebers of my family are all mixed up, but it's just when it comes to driving, things just come pouring out of my mouth and I just can't control it. And I think that one day I might get out of my car and hurt somebody, like seriously kick somebody's butt. Like yesterday, I was driving going like 80 on the street, and the speed limit there is like 50, but this car came out of nowhere and started tail gating me and honking his horn and flipping me off and stuff and cussing, so I just slammed on my breaks and started going like 25. and he just started backing way up off of me. I'm like the nicest person anyone can know, but when i get into my car i just totally change. i feel like such a bad person.

I passed my test 8 years ago but at the time lived in the country with only minor roads. I now live in the city but have little experience of driving on busy roads/motorways.

Aside from not on the train...

What car, position, etc.?

I ride NYC MTA trains to and from work everyday, and I'd like to know which car is the best bet if the train crashes.

The two front tyres on my car are worn down to 1 & 1.6 on the inside. I've had the tracking checked and the garage can't find anything wrong with the steering etc. Any suggestions before I go out and buy new tyres?
