I get the feeling that they will ALL be liabilities.

The fiesta driver strikes me as someone who's interested in driving and who could make a skilled driver if he chose to.
The lady who drove into the tree strikes me as someone who's just going to be hopeless. (We'll see how that pans out.)
The final lady... well we'll see. She could be ok in the end maybe? (benefit of doubt here!)

But the first two seem to be good examples of people who i) choose to drive badly and ii) drive badly because they're incapable of driving well.

The first kind will potentially be able to concentrate and respond well if there's a problem, but the 2nd type will flail about and shut their eyes. However you'd expect the first type to have a bigger accident due to the overconfidence and speed, and the 2nd type to have a smaller one as they are being more cautious.

Will be interesting to see how they all respond to the tuition.

Possibly. Am I now watching a repeat, or the 2nd episode of a series?

Think it is new, but not sure...still TV like this boils my P..

If the drivers need help, which if 1% of this is true, doing it this way is a a bit rubbish.

fking hell they all need they're licences taking off them.

The fiesta guy purely because he loves his 1.4 tarted up, battered fiesta far too much. What a dick.

Agree. I've reckoned for AGES that we need to have compulsory re-tests every 5-10 years to get these drivers back up to scratch or off the roads.

Huh?


On a separate note, I see that the Fiesta guy CAN do it right, when he chooses to. I find that less scary to share a road with than these other two women (particularly the red head) because they don't stand much chance of avoiding a crash, because they are constantly at the mercy of their lack of skill. They can't suddenly CHOOSE to drive properly, but the other guy can.

I thought it would because of the other thread on the same topic that's been about for the past few weeks.
