Reading through all of this has made me realise that when your young all you want to do is get there in a hurry, or show off etc, when your older all you want to do is get there - ie avoid deadshits doing circle work in the middle of an intersection. I'm not suggesting for one second that every young driver is a hoon or speeds - god know there are plenty of 30+, 40+, 50+ drivers who have never grown up when it comes to driving a car. When I got my licence at 17 and the instructor told me that it takes 8 years to be a competent driver I thought he was full of shit - on reflection, at age 29 he was right. Now I have a far greater respect for other road users.
Where is all this coming from.... a few years back I was driving behind my best mate on the way into the city and, dare I say it, a P plate driver in a big hurry decided to overtake but misjudged the oncoming traffic and had to cut in on my mate driving the car in front, their cars clipped and my mate ended up slamming into the back of a parked semi on the side of the road. He didn’t have a chance. I threw out the anchors and pulled up - ran back to see my mate - he was a mess. I looked back to see that the other driver had pulled up as had about 10 other cars. In a blind fury I ran up to the other car, put my boot through the drivers window and dragged him out in a headlock back to see what had happened. The sight of Ben with half his face missing and skull busted open made him throw up and then start crying like a baby. All I wanted to do is kick the shit out of him but the bystanders kept us apart. We buried my mate 4 days later. Apparently this driver had dangerously overtaken several other cars before he got to us which was reported in court, where he was charged for reckless driving causing death. I got a caution from the police for my action.
All I can say is, slow the fuck down. SERIOUSLY. You wont get home any faster - unlike Ben, who never made it home.
