    I think Tyler hit the nail on the head when he was talking about finding the limits of the car in a safe environment. One of the first things my father did when I got my drivers license was take me to the snow covered mall parking and show me how to spin the car around and recover. Much better to have that knowledge and skill before you get yourself into a situation you can't recover from. Plus it made driving so much more fun later on in life.

      @IncusVidz 2 года назад +8

      Knowing the limits and how to recover from bad situations is very important. Not only on snow. Norway for example has a mandatory safety training for their drivers licence and I think its a great idea. My mom was a very insecure driver until she got one and I also started experimenting a lot after I got my car. Iits not only fun it also makes you a better and safer driver. 0 Accidents so far despite having a few code brown situations like the rear loosing grip in corners on suddently slippery roads or going to fast into a cornor because you underestimated it. It doesn't protect you from idots but it can help you defusing situations. A lot of people can't even do a full emergency brake in a streight line even though its mandatory in our driving test.

    I can't believe how well Ed summed it all up - people who design electric cars really take driving as a chore and completely don't understand the rest of us who take it for a recreational activity, a therapy, a hobby, a passion and whatever else you can think of to describe it. It's NOT only about going fast, it's about the experience of being in control, of manually changing gears between corners, hearing the controlled explosions propelling you forward. It's not a chore, it's an exciting event especially on a gorgeous twisty road.
