It would come as no surprise to me if they did a study of drivers today under the age of 30 and found that most learned to drive from watching video games (Grand Theft Auto for example).
Oh, they may have taken driver's ed or had someone take them driving to learn the basics needed to pass the test, but they "learned" about driving skills and ettiquette from video games. How else could you account for the increased numbers of speeding incidents and accidents in younger drivers? Then add the fun of texting while driving and you have potential unguided missiles on the roads.

Oh, and I really appreciate the mental prowess of the 2-3 lane jumpers that weren't paying attention to their exits. Hell, that's what they made brakes for, RIGHT???

I am a legend in my own mind!
