I'd look forward to driving on the motorway at speed in the UK, I can feel my blood pressure rise everytime I approach I-95 or the turnpike 'cause I know it's gonna be full of idiots. I just hope when I go home this winter I can remember how to negotiate a roundabout...

I think if the test was stricter here it would produce a better standard of driving, in the UK you really have to earn the privaledge to drive, so once you get the licence you do your best to make sure you keep it!

for the poster that was interested here's a pic from my old Peugeot, you can see clutch, brake (accelerator pedal is hidden behind seat) gear stick and handbrake are all in their 'normal' places.
