    My Mrs is a German import, over there she did night classes three or four nights a week as well as practical training on weekends for three months as part of the driver licence training.
    IMHO German drivers have a much higher skill level than Kiwis.

    Your Mrs too? My German taught me to drive better, she still does in fact....(-:

    Boaraxa, I will take some responsibility for the photos Cordite posted on my shoulders. I am the one who is debating gun shot deaths against road deaths with Cordite.
    I have never in my life seen road fatality images like that before, they are shocking. I didn't even ever imagine that is what it could look like. I would like to see the actual photos of the teenager shot by Diack posted too.
    Not through some morbid fascination, but because shooting fatality photos need to be shown to gun users especially new licence holders and those motor vehicle accident photos should be shown to our sons and daughters before they drive. We are hiding from the truth with our sanitised media coverage and that is not helping to save anyone else's life into the future. I will be showing my son those photos in the future and telling him "this is truly how you and your mates could end up in an accident, so think when you drive and don't fuck it up" My 2c

    @Boaraxa

    Sorry to have offended you, but mind your language if your kids are about on the forum. Mods, fine to blank the carnage images. This is what happens on roads but we take more note of hunters making mistakes, so who is sick?
