January 27, 201312 yr comment_413213 When I compare this with my idea of spirited driving I am a slacker. Nice training video for improvement though.

January 27, 201312 yr comment_413217 That's why they make them all have dash cams... Totally trashed infrastructure, they'll duct tape anything together and drive it, seriously, what a mess!

January 27, 201312 yr comment_413222 I wondered about why there are so many videos of people driving over there! Thanks Rob.If you watch the videos carefully you will see what I mean about their infrastructure. In one, a truck driving down the street has powerlines just fall down and grab onto his truck structure and cause it to wheelie in an intersection. In another, a light pole just falls for no apparent reason. Clearly, they are crazed drivers but it doesn't help that the roads and such have gone to ****...

January 27, 201312 yr comment_413223 I didn't realize their infrastructure is that bad I thought those things happening were just coincidences. Egads. Where I work we have telephone poles 50 years old and they are being replaced as a few finally fell down.

January 27, 201312 yr comment_413227 I see 99% of the problems are directly caused by incredibly bad drivers. Apparently no one cares about much there. Pity.

January 27, 201312 yr comment_413242 I always fly my helicopter down the middle of the highway! I was wondering if Bruce Willis was going to jump out... Maybe the video car was really from a movie casting company (with big signs all over it) and they were all trying out for the next F&F movie?

January 28, 201312 yr comment_413262 The video cams are there to protect drivers should they be pulled over by the police.Been there and driven there...rented a copter in 97 and got a nice Hind. Nav by road is common.
