    Another policy is to force everyone to buy expensive but unreliable cars so that if you hit someone, both your car and his car explode.

    especially since 90% of drivers actually ARE idiots who most likely got their license from a craker jack box... and for your information, matt, cali drivers are the worst... except for chicago, and possibly new york, but i haven't been to new york, so i can't tell you definitively...

    Chicago drivers are freakin' suicidal maniacs, and I speak from experience.

    Also, I don't go for all that defensive driving crap. I practice offensive driving.

    I would, but have you seen the size of those "Road Trains"! :-o

    Heck, you see one #@$# bastards comeing you move the far side of the raod so you don't get sucked under.

    Saw one hit a herd of sheep, untill then I didn't know the term "Bow Wave" applied to road veihiles. wasn't roadkill, roadsplash would be more accurate.

    We don't have "Road Trains" in America. They are illegal out here. How big are they really?

    The term is ass kisser.

    Offensive driving reaps larger benefits than pansy driving. My father tries to follow every procedure in the rules, to the letter. He has crashed thrice to this day (2 of those cars were total losses and also sent him to the hospital with grave wounds) and still insist that I should learn from him. No, thanks, I'll learn from my mother whom to this day has never, EVER crashed even though she drives like Tommy Vercetti on crack.

    I hate asshole drivers. I want to take a hammer to every single bone in their legs and arms so they can't drive again until their crushed bones mend and they have repented their previous ways.

    the worst drivers are the morons who can't seem to grasp that green means go, or that having your turn signal on means you're gonna fucking turn...

    I live in a big city, and have a house with a yard. It is also remarkably quiet here, particularly at night.

    If by "cali" you mean "California" (only foreigners and pre-teen surfer wannabees call it Cali), I can't imagine what would make you think so poorly of our drivers. No better or worse than anywhere else in my experience. In fact, I've been to very few places that could rival Los Angeles for a dedicated car/hot rod culture which encourages respect for the road.

    I can only conclude that you hate big cities by default, and are jealous of our fantastic weather. :)

    All of which reminds me: I need to get off my ass and get a new car. I can't find a decent v8, 4-speed Mustang though, and it's pissing me off.

    Be grateful you don't have to drive a lada, ok? ;)

    I didn't know women liked V-8 vehicles.

    I love my Mercedes. Runs like a locomotive on the road, and even has a star on the hood, which helps greatly when aiming at pedestrians. Fantastic car.

    It does 0-100 km/h within minutes!

    Usually not long. 2 seconds after you run over the school children waiting for the bus. After the cop sees you, the car will turn off and refuse to start.
