however that overlap disappears when you talk about people who hold up to date civvie AD tickets or hold EFAD/CERAD/ Police emergency driving authorisations
Anyone who is actually good at driving knows they are nowhere as good as they could be. It's kind of the point.
TBF, to account for population differences because those are raw numbers you should divide by 5 (roughly, but also need to consider they have more cars) for the Americans. So you're only four times more likely to die.
No, a number of people on the thread have talking as pedestrians or cyclists.
I’m a cyclist and a pedestrian so I know notbing about cars and driving, but I do think all drivers with indicators should indicate every time they turn at a junction and every time they switch lanes, whether they’re legally required to or not. A decent driving instructor should advise the same. If you always indicate, you’re less likely to forget to. It’s a good habit to establish
if you always indicate you are not assessing the need for the signal
Yes. And? As I said, if they do it whether they need to or not, they’re establishing a good habit that may save lives
Ballshit
If you always indicate, you'll be indicating even when your assessment fails. In my experience people's assessment fails frequently. For example: when they fail to notice a pedestrian for whom it is relevant where they are going; when they fail to notice a cyclist who might die if they don't notice them but they don't notice them anyway; when they fail to spot someone pulling out of a parking space in the road ahead. Given how often these failures occur, why not just indicate? It costs nothing. If you aren't assessing the road properly your indicator style is going to do fuck all to change that.
I suspect this is pure lies - no one thinks that fast. You’re talking about a few seconds at most. Better just indicate and slow down at junctions, regardless of the speed limit. I regularly cross an A-road which has pelican crossing all over one junction and some cars and lorries regularly traverse this junction at 60-70mph as 60 is the limit. It beggars belief that the law doesn’t seem to require motorists to slow down massively at this type of junction. Most cars do slow down, but there are many out there who seem to think they’re playing MarioKart.
so unthinking action taken wuithout consigeration of the action is better than Applying the Systme of car COntrol and in that first Phase , the information, applying TUG
this is how you are taught to use the system of car control , WITHOUT exemptions
i'm so wrong that every 'civilian' advanced driving text, and the materials that Support EFAD and CERAD as well as Roadcraft all talk aobut using the System of car control in this way
What the fuck are you talking about? You clearly have an alarming confidence in your own skills propped up by your achievement of a gold star off of teacher for driving good.
that's why CERAD /EFAD/ Standard response are 120 - 150 hours in duration and have multiple pass or fail theory and practice assessments

You’re raving now.
well i'm demur to your experience as subject matter expert on being a smug complacent bellend
Yes, they teach you that you always have more to learn and can always be better.
Other than to flex on internet forums I don’t think so really.
but I’m only a cyclist so my smug complacent bellendry only ends up with me hurt (see the Show Me Your Bruises thread)
