    "I'm an average driver!" 50%.

    Start a poll on here and you'd get the same result.

    You mean the amount of tax collector's on our roads?
    What's your problem? Half of us are right, only the other 34% are wrong.

    Where does that say above average. They might consider a pretty good driver average. Wouldn't you prefer your 'average' driver to be pretty good?

    However I suspect if they had added a line for an excellent driver or an above average driver more than realist number of the 84% of pretty good drivers would have moved to the higher level

    Taken from The Harold's poll.
    If "not that good" and "poor" are added together, I see both of those as being below average.

    For those that are interested, you can download posters on the rule change from this link. I've put four or five posters up at my work to hopefully help to get the message across.

    Pigs will probably blub and complain that the public don't love them for forcing them to obey lane discipline.Then,after two weeks, they will go back to collecting revenue on speed,seatbelts and alcohol.
    Just like they did with indicating at round-abouts,cell phone use etc.etc.etc.

    Shit I didn't very well on the test. May be something to do with the fact that as a blue oval supporter I'd never give way to a RED car.

    Be an easy change over in Hawkes Bay, no one gives way or knows the road rules so all will stay the same. If most ppl can't figure out a roundabout then what hope will they have hahaa.

    Having visited Hastings a few times recently I must agree - more than their share of incompetent drivers.
    Here for the ride.
