In MY opinion, the first thing you should work on is that "on only speed when I'm ______....".. I know some people like that, and to be honest, I don't think they should be driving. Don't drive angry. simple as that.... If you are driving angry, you are probably pre-occupied with whatever is on your mind, and less focused on the task at hand.... When you plow into the minivan killing a family's children, what will your response be? "Sorry, I was angry cause of _____"... Sure, you might think it's a one in a million chance, but it only takes that one time. Think about how it would be if the roles were reversed.
There are ALOT of bad drivers out here in Chicago. It seems like a lot when I drive with other people, they get frustrated alot, "that jerk just pulled out in front of me" or "He just cut me off!".... It's like people get tunnel vision and focus on their lane only, and only 30 feet in front of the car, I just don't get it. Not ONCE have I been in the car with a friend and agreed that they were 'cut off', or anything like that..... I saw it coming from a ways away.... use the mirrors, watch side traffic, periferral vision people.... use it. lol. You see a car closing on you quickly in another lane, and there is an opening in front of you, get ready to have him pull into that opening.... watch for signals, watch's peoples heads for them to look before changing lanes.... Maybe I have a supernatural ability to read the moves of a vehicle before they happen, or maybe I just pay attention...... [/rant].... whoops,. lol.
Anyways.... As mentioned, driving is a privelage, not a right. Getting angry at the instructors/testers/whatever and letting that manafest iteslf by flooring it, or driving recklessly is just a bad move. You think after a stunt like that when you go back they will go back and not remember it? What happens if you get the same guy again?
Driving & the tests were so easy for me. I got 100% on the written, and passed the driving with flying colors. Have only been driving for about 9 years (7 on a license, 2 on permit), and no accidents (knock on wood).
