So driving is a privilege?

So I came back last night from spring break and my roommate, who had been here all break, tells me he got his license. He is from China and was very excited to be driving a car. He then told me he had never "turned an engine" before the test. When I asked him how driving had been going he says he is "fucking crazy" and that its really scary. He has already hit a parking meter and put a considerable dent in his car and bent the meter back a little. He has gotten a $100 ticket for reckless driving or something and I am completely terrified to be on the road with this kid. License test should be a lot stricter if this kid can never actually drive a car, pass the test, and still drive like a complete moron.

If you want i can drag it up, but when you look at the empirical data Massachusetts drivers actually have a low ranking in the accidents per thousand miles category.
We do have a lot of aggression, but that doesn't translate to shitty driving.

yessir, you are 100% right. browns just really piss me off. they're disgusting
and i think nyc is the craziest place to drive. theres like a 3 lane road but 4 lanes of traffic. a goddamn zoo.

same here dude, i live in jersey and honestly i dont think its that we're such "bad" drivers, but more that we drive at least 10 or 20 over the limit all the times and most of us dont give a fuck about others (wich i guess is dangerous, but w.e, its jersey). for example, giving the finger to another driver in jersey is just a daily thing, at least for me it is. but it could be because our driving test is a complete joke, yea we have a year where you have to drive with a parent, but the test is literally 2 minutes long on a closed course. you parallel park, make like 3 turns, and your done. its almost impossible to fail so even shit drivers pass. but the thing about asians being horrible drivers couldnt be more true, no matter where you are

ohh and if youve ever felt the urge to either slam or your horn or straight up pass a driver on a single lane road because they are driving the speed limit, then you are most likely a NJ driver

they just arent used to going straight without stopping for more then 50 feet, but seriously driving in the city is a bitch and a half
and as a new yorker ive been raised with the notion that Connecticut drivers are the worst, although i beg to differ
All times are Eastern (-5)
