Best Driver In The World
More than you thought you needed to know about controlling your car and those around you...
Reading through this course and completing the quizzes will undoubtedly make you a better driver. Unlike other "advanced driving" courses which use cars and teach emergency maneuvers, this course emphasizes prevention, awareness, and psychology of safety-- without reliance on electronic measures--, while recognizing emerging truths such as changing driving patterns, higher densities, and scofflaw behavior. In a world where other uses of this phrase are sarcastic or for racing, I want us to earn the phrase honestly, and to share information so that anyone else will feel completely safe, controlling all situations, on the road. I want us to help to set the speed limit at, say, 110mph in the year 2050, for all of us, while we are still in control of our vehicles.
