Just Because We Know The Rules of The Road......doesn't mean we follow them. Whether your own asphalt experiences lend it credence or not, Oregon drivers remain the most knowledgeable about the rules of the road, according to the second annual GMAC Insurance National Drivers Test, released as the big summer travel season begins.Take those results with a grain of salt, however. Last year, California drivers were ranked 43, and this year they were 14, according to the rankings, and we all know how those guys drive <ducking to avoid objects thrown at me>. I got 100% on the test, how'd you score (so I know who to avoid on the road)? Thanks Barney for the tip. Posted by Jake on 05/28/06 @ 04:05 PM

I missed the one about the Do Not Pass. Apparently the correct answer is "until after pass the sign," which was a poorly worded answer. It wasn't even correct Engrish. Jake said on 05/28/06 @ 10:17 PM: Simone: Yes, I remember that post (and linking to it back in the day). Hilarious. And Josh: I actually missed that one, too, but rounded it up because it was a poorly worded question. So as far as I'm concerned, you got 100% as well. pril said on 05/29/06 @ 04:30 AM: As someone who learned to drive in Southern California, i have to say that Oregon drivers suck crap. Maybe they're knowledgeable, but that knowledge flies out the window as soon as that driver's side door closes and the key hits the ignition. I don't often suffer from road rage, but once in a while... man... i can't find enough stuff on the floor to throw at the dickhead in front of me. (i'm only half kidding) Post a comment |
