I think the question is highly debatable. Some would say they are good drivers and some would say they are not good. It is my opinion as a truck driver travelling across the country and witnessing the amount of horrific accidents that I have seen that if you had asked most of these people in the preceding days if they were good drivers the answer would have been yes. However, accidents require only a split second to be caused or to have happen and the results are often tragic and fatal. We can never assume what the other person is going to do and that is why no matter how "good" we say we are or "think" we are...it is all a matter of driving defensively and being aware each and everytime we get behind the wheel. Everyday is a different day and requires all our concentration.

I thought I was. I was involved in a really bad car accident on the highway about a month ago and I am still very uncomfortable driving. Now I would say that I am overly cautious and not the best driver. I think in time I will get comfortable again and become a good driver again.

I'm a cautious driver and don't do things that will take my concentration away from driving like talking on the cell phone. However I realize that you can be the world's best driver but you have no control of some idiot driver barreling down on you.

I consider myself a mediocre driver. Oddly enough, the few accidents that I've been in have been the fault of other drivers. You do know that overall, 80% of drivers consider themselves "above average," don't you? The true mark of incompetence is the fact that you don't realize that you are, hence the 80% figure. Did you know that drivers from Rhode Island are rated the worst in the nation? Nobody uses turn signals in Providence, not even the police.
