spectral, there is no argument that most young drivers are crap. My ex girlfriend is one of them. Her friends as well. They all sucked and I am surprised none of them killed themselves. The point is that just 'cuz some of them suck, doesn't mean that it should be assumed they all do.
When you actualy look at the stats though, young drivers aren't that over represented in road fatalities. I was suprised when I heard some polly going on about "Young drivers make up XX percent of our road users and XX percent of road fatalities, bla bla, this isn't acceptable". When I saw that I thought "wow... that's a lot lower than I expected."
I'm a good driver. Much better than most I see. I slow down when I see something that may cause an accident. If someone is driving eraticaly, I either slow down and let them get ahead, or get passed them and speed up to get away. One thing I am guilty of is a little bit of tailgating, but I'm trying to stop that. But that's a bad habbit that's formed over the years, not one I started with.
