Well i'm just about to get off my Green P's and i look back now when i was on my red's two years ago and i wonder what the hell i was up to, i had the driving skills due to the advance driving courses and rally courses i had done but i didn't have the common sense of thinking about "what if a car came around the corner in the other direction"
i think the RTA should take the $32 fee's for booking l's,p's tests and the $27 road rules book costs and a little government funding and force young drivers to do an advanced driving course,
because the problem with getting your license is all you need to be able to do is check your mirror's and reverse park.
nothing which will help you when your about to have an accident, probably 80% of people out on the road would have no idea how to brake effectivly in an emergency or in mid corner on a wet surface. they should put more effort into making you drivers learn car control skills rather then making them go to bed early.
and out of all the near misses i had was during the day not at night.
i've done many driving courses and in 3 years done over 120,000km driving around sydney,melbourne and hobart so i'm confident i can save myself and car when the time counts,
but i've been in the car with a few people which has scared me when they have locked wheels up on corners, and so forth
worst time was when i was in the front passenger seat going into a corner and the car started to get some slight understeer so they wound the steering wheel to full left lock then once the front end got some grip all i could see was myself launching towards to guard rail.
simply because the driver had not had any lesson's on car control.
if everyone did an advanced driving course i bet you would see a huge drop in car accidents. i'll bet my life on it,
and i can't see anyone complaining about having to do an advanced driving course, can you?
