Mon, 29 July 2002 22:56 You can be a fast driver without being a stupid one, like i drive fast but if its a blind corner where i can't see whats ahead or there's a chance there could be a car coming the otherway i will back off and wait till i get around it before i plant my foot back on the gas, only corners i take hard are the ones where there's no one around and if i can see the exit of the corner as well to see if any other cars may be coming. And as for driving i don't think it all comes down to just taking lessons and getting experience, they should set up some specialised corses, i've done a rally drivng corse which helps teach you the handling characteristics of your car and i also did it in the rain on mud so i also learnt there are times when your car can loose control from under you but you are atleast taught how to regain the cars control. And another course which i loved and think everyone should do it and thats the Ian Luff Advanced driving course, as you drive out of oran park you are a completly different driver and for the better as they teach you everything about a car (even basic things like how to set your mirrors) and the main and most important thing they teach you is, while your driving you arn't just trying to not run into other people but you have to drive in a way that you stop other people from hitting you, its called defence driving and you have to remember, just because you might be the best driver in the world doesn't mean some idiot isn't going to hit you!!!!. so you learn and get into the habbit of driving in a way where you watch every single car on the road and drive in a way to prevent them from hitting you. i know i've gone on a bit there and a lot of it probably doesn't make sense but i think it should be compulsory for people to do Advanced Driver courses like these, so that way some people get a bit of a scare and realise you never have 100% control of a car. no matter how good you are.
