Did anyone watch
Last Chance Learners tonight?
I'll do anything to avoid watching McLeod's... Dodgy horses. Give me a car any day! Doesn't matter whether they're young or old, some people just shouldn't ever have a license...

They're just not emotionally able to deal with it. Can't handle stressful situations. It's just as bad as adrenalin addicts who don't calculate risks. I'd hate to be driving down the road and have them suddenly lock their brakes because they're having a panic attack. Maybe that's why the Ipswich Motorway is always so slow in the afternoon!

They need to bring in some decent form of attitude testing - one that's not too obvious. Perhaps an EQ test..? Something so that only people with a safe amount of mortal fear will be entrusted with the safety of those around them on the roads.
There's a highway interchange 5.5km from my house, it's all a 60 zone. I don't know why.

I'm the only one who does 60 through it!

And purely only because Mr Beattie gets enough money.

But I don't feel safe going through there at 60, it's dangerous, just as bad as the fool in the VQ Statesman tailgating me in a 100 zone a few weeks ago...
My point is that, either way - be it the aggressive among the P platers in their gutless buzzboxes, the panicky in their V8's, or anyone in between, it seems too easy for people with no "common" courtesy to get their license and abuse people who are responsible...

End Rant.
