[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not that good of a driver, mostly because deep down I'm a little frightened of it and [b]also tend to get lost in thought and distracted.[/b]  That said, I've only ever been in one accident and it wasn't my fault.

I'm a pretty good parker, but helped along by the fact I have a smaller car so it's easier.  I was actually once complemented on my parallel parking job by a stranger![/quote]
Please stop driving until you learn to fully pay attention. Your behavior is incredibly dangerous.[/quote]

NP, but some people have ADHD, Susan. Or other conditions, for that matter. Perhaps no one with imperfect vision (even with glasses), a slight tremor, chronic fatigue, slower than average reflexes, etc. should ever drive until they learn not to have those conditions.

I am much like the above poster-- which is to say, I have some excellent habits, too, but I'm aware of my deficits and never stop trying to improve. Yet I also accept that I may never be better than a mediocre driver. Still, I'm at least mediocre. I've gotten into only one very minor fender-bender that was my fault. My driving record, while not spotless, is average or above average. A speeding ticket or two, but not in a long time, and no other traffic violations.

Your comment is just silly, really. It serves no purpose other than to make PP aware they have a problem they've already admitted to, or to shame a person who is already self-conscious and very likely does try their best to reduce its effects. If this were someone who said they drive despite having become legally blind or drive drunk, that would be one thing. But "I'm not a great driver, I get distracted, but I've never caused an accident?" Just take half of the population's licenses away.

That's okay, though-- I know you weren't proposing that. You only posted your comment to feel superior.  [/quote]
