Totaly agree, too many people on the road who dont know what they are doing, from old buggers like myself who travel at 5 kph below the posted limit (always in the slow lane because Im never in a hurry) to young guys who are so awsome at driving that they drive so far up your arse so they can read your speedo from their car.
The testing should be done away from other people as Ive seen first hand other people telling them answers.
Also the rules are changing all the time so a bit of re-education is needed anyway.
Dont get me started on driver education, how many of us were taught what to do when the car starts to slide or practice evasive action in a car, Drive to Survive courses should be mandatory, its not speed that kills people, its the sudden stop when they hit the pole-tree-wall-other car-person that may have been avoided with some advance driving techniques.
On a side note there is a guy at work who supercharged a new SS commonwhore, thing is a animal, BUT, still with stock brakes and suspension, I asked him about what was planned for brakes and handling and he said it was good enough and he would rather spend money on making it go faster. If there is logic there I dont see it.
