[QUOTE="jds4lunch, post: 242695, member: 10790"] Dillweed, I was about to say the exact same thing. Being a "young" driver myself (I'm 23) I'll be the first to admit that we are in a high risk group. I wish I had training similar to the training that I recieved when I started at UPS, heck just working for big brown has made me a better driver in my everyday life. I'm not sure about the rest of you out there, but I definatly use the same driving tactics when I'm driving outside of work, that I would normally use if I was out on the street delivering. Between working at UPS and driving from city to city reffing hockey at night, draving alone probably makes up over 60% of my day and that's alot of opportunity every day to get into an accedent. I can't count the number of stupid things I see people do out on the road everyday, and I do agree that kids that first get their licence aren't experienced enough to be driving on thier own right away. My parents are pretty old school, and I wasn't allowed to drive without supervision until I was almost 18 and when we had some spare time on a sunday afternoon my dad would take me out and practise my driving. As for the comment about the police video of accedents, in my province then only show that at the classes that you have to take to get your licence back if you get a DUI. [/QUOTE]
