everybody thinks they drive better than everyone else.

you know what's really scary? half of the population is a 'below average' driver.

I agree that this legistlation is a waste of time and money. Speeders will simply disable it right away. I'd rather they spend the money on mandatory skill testing autocross for all drivers. IF you cant make it through my course in XXX seconds, you lose your licence. Now THAT would be fun.

so whats the point of having it?

how would people race their cars at the track?

I was on Westminister hwy the other night, and this Nissan Versa was going 80 km/h which I though was an acceptable speed to be behind, especially since the speed limit was 60. But everytime we came up to a side street, he would brake almost to a full stop and then continue back up to 80 km/h.

He did this at 3 streets before I was annoyed and passed him. :mad:

Even if they can drive, people make some of the weirdest descisions/choices when behind the wheel of a car. :cry:

But think about it, it does make some sense. I am not saying you should go as far left as possible and sideswiping the adjacent car though.

If you are hugging the curb and turning right, you have to turn the steering wheel so much more and make a much sharper turn. Hoping your rear wheels will not hop the street corner and damage those nice rims you got. X.x

Also, I am totally against this bill to have a speed limiter. Instead, ICBC should do as Chopstick has said, have a much more intense and thorough driver licensing program that is MANDATORY.

and fuck the shortcut if you have a license from China, you can get Class 5 immediately. We all know those people bought their Chinese licenses.

Welcome to the Nurburgring, now you can drive your car at topspeed around the entire track!
