I didn't think so.

Me neither. It's a really great point I think.

I am a very very poor driver. I admit it. I can't drive for sh!t.
Seriously.

But my short game is alright, I chip and putt fairly well.

In calibrating the average do you include all the deaduns and Darwin Award laureates?
And is driving skill a measure of safe driving or car handling?
Is there some objective test?

Mark is probably the only person in the country, perhaps the world, that would admit to being a bad driver. Bad sailor, bad looking, bad in bed even we'll all admit to or joke about at the drop of a hat, but never it seems will we even contemplate being a bad driver, less than average. Everybody considers themselves a better than average driver.


...hey, wait a minute. That was a golf pun.

How bout those that consider themselves just average. Perhaps one explanation for those that are above average but consider themselves not as good is that the goals shift- you do anything well and you look to those that are better. Nor is it a bad thing, if you can't critisize yourself you will never get better. Pity that can't be said for the majority of the population.

At a guess I would say around 50% of the drivers here are below average

You are all crap drivers, that was one of the lessons I had when learning.

Perfect thing to teach a new driver I recon.

I admit im below average.
I usually have at least one moment per drive where i brake real late,clip a kerb or wander out of lane.
When my wife is in the car she often say's is that the near miss can i relax now
i don't speed or cut people up which is better than some, just lack concentration seems to be my issue
