Lol. I have seen so many dumbies in their new sports cars loose control and take someone out, nearly take someone out, or just take themself out. Your logic is laughable and I fully disagree. There might be some that are good drivers, but very rarely, do people who drive a fancier car have any better driving skills as a non-fancy car driver. I would digress for said drivers who have done a lot of training / practice on tracks, etc, but again, tracks are far more controlled environments vs. standard streets and a person driving like an ahole can and does make it more dangerous for everyone else (yes, even if they are Dale Jr or whomever else....other drivers aren't looking around checking mirrors on a 50 MPH road looking for the car that flies by at 90 or 100.Paris said:
Paris - I do think there are some things done in Germany that differ in the US which do account for some of the items. More cost / scrutiny on getting a license would be one area to highlight along with laws against passing on the right side, but I also believe that per capita their are less cars / drivers on the road which potentially skew a lot of the statistics and I don't know if there are good enough stats which truly give you an apples to apples comparison (but again, I don't think it is necessarily the "faster" is "safer"). There probably is a little something to the if you are going really fast you probably are more attentive by nature (or so you'd hope) but there are still just general reaction times, what if scenarios, where the faster you are going the less potential their is to mitigate a wreck, etc.
