Ben, we're never going to settle this. Let's race down carbon canyon, first one out wins the argument.

It'll be settled as soon as you realize I'm right. BTW, did you replace that bracket I welded for you?

All this is real intersting, but also funny at the same time. You want people to THINK and DRIVE at the same............ It won't happen.

It only takes one accident for you to change you mind on that one... It's not always your fault. I think I am a fantastic driver and I have avoided a few situations that I believe most people would have gotten into accidents. But I've also been fucked in a situation where there's nothing left to do but brace for impact.

My point is, you're in for a humbling experience one day with that attitude.

If you were rear ended, there's rarely a way to avoid that, and it's not your fault. You guys are really focusing too much on my cockiness and missing the point. The point is:

Driver skill, reaction time, and experience have more to do with being a good driver than being over 24 years of age. I was referencing my agressive driving to stress the point that it's really not about holding your hands at two and ten, some of the best drivers I know push their cars limits on a regular basis. Being a good driver has more to do with personal skill, and less to do with age and making a full stop at every stop sign.

Not to mention, pushing your cars limits (whether it be on a race track or on the street, the asphault doesn't care what you call it) will provide experience thereby improving driver skill.

K, done explaining this. This really isn't something I thought anyone would argue about.

I think you're just missing the overall point of what that guy was saying and when Ben was reiterating... it's more about maturity than any of those things you listed.

Extreme example, but it illustrates the point.
