a. Why is driving so difficult? Driving is difficult because you are using a DIFFERENT part of your mind, and therefore you are not used to doing that.  This is why most smart kids (4.0 GPA) can't drive.  They are so conditioned to use their mind academically, and thus it is difficult to use another part of their mind (the "other" side).  This is a DIFFERENT kind of smartness, like street smart, sports smart, artistic smart, organizational smart, people smart, emotional smart or anything else.  Also, most people view driving as a chore, something they have to do (attitude).  But what they don't understand is that if they're going to do something for the next 50 or 70 years (basically the rest of their lives), they might as well be good ( if not great) at it.  Also, they have never been taught how to properly drive.  Plus, they do not have the desire to improve or think about what they're doing and the reason thereof.  They basically do what they do and consider that good enough, which isn't.  No one's born a bad driver.  But the majority choose to remain that way for life. 

 

b. What makes a bad driver?  Not knowing what you're doing, why you're doing it, how you're doing it, and the consequence of your action upon others.  Some hints are that you don't like driving and you're a non-confrontational individual.  You simply want to get from point A to point B.  This is why there are so many bad drivers on the road nowadays and it continues to increase!

 

c. What makes a good driver?  You are cautious, you can do maneuvers instantly or in a few tries.  You generally understand what's going on and know what you're doing but not to great, painstaking details.  But under pressure (in heavy traffic or time constraint), you crumble and are unable to perform as normal.

 

d. What makes a great driver? To be a great driver, you must be 1) aggressive (not reckless, taking only understood & calculated, known risks), 2) mentally and emotionally focused on the road and on nothing else; basically not be distracted. In further details, you must be constantly thinking, predicting other drivers' moves while planning your next 10 moves.  Also, you're calm as can be, pressure does not apply to you.  Whatever is going on, you decide what to do.  You do not react to your environment but you create the environment so that others can react to it.  3) Finally, you must be physically fit because driving involves endless body moments, such as the neck, wrists, fingers, thigh, ankle, arm & shoulder.  Remember, great drivers are not born but are made.  It is a learned set of skills (there is not such a thing as a "natural" driver).  It takes many years to reach a level of greatness in any thing.
