I was laughing at it.

The test with the gates at the end, they picked a bunch of chavs as the young people.

IMHO, worst drivers from my experience 1, old people 2, chavs 3, inexperienced 4, middle aged women


The road train is an interesting concept, although there is a lot of questions which need answering about the safety of it

summary from what I can remember :

Men vs Women

Men take more risks and crash more on bends and head on collisions when overtaking

Women have less spatial awareness and crash when pulling left out of a junction or turning right

Men have more accidents statistically speaking but I cannot remember the figure

youth vs age

The scoring on driving through the gates showed a trend (can't remember in favour of which group doh!) but was not statistically significant enough to be meaningful.

The team admitted that they did not have a representative sample and would need a much larger sample for their tests.

texting, tired, drinking (but within legal limit

Basically you are considerably shitter if you do any of the above and you are especially a cunt with a 50% higher chance of crashing if you are texting.
