So I was sitting at a light today waiting for a turn signal to make a left hand turn. I get the arrow and begin to make the turn when I nearly clipped by a drivers-ed Taurus who was sitting stationary and decided to go through the intersection at the sign of my movement. right through his red light and cutting off the person turning behind me. Kinda makes you wonder whos teaching our drivers out there.

end rant.

I dont think its so much who is teaching them to drive as it is people flat out dont pay attention while driving anymore and are too busy trying to do 50 other things that should not be done while driving.

:word: which is why i think all cars should be manual…or at least all road tests have to be taken in a manual, because people that drive manuals generally (not saying ALL, so dont flame)…they generally pay more attention to what they’re doing while driving…

def. not true about me. im king of not paying attention and having close calls.

You would think that the drivers ed teacher would slam the brake on his side of the car. ppl suck sometimes.
