So who's the best driver on here? 14:30 - Sep 28 with 3451 viewsBrixtonBlue

I've been driving just over 14 years and never had an accident. Well, someone reversed into me while I was stationary in a petrol station, but I don't think that really counts.

Guess it depends how much you drive as well. In the early days it was quite a lot, backwards and forwards from uni to digs, digs to work and digs back home to Essex. Not so much these days, although the odd trip to Essex and Birmingham to visit parents.

Crystal Palace to the Lake District is my furthest drive.

I bet Bloots will downarrow this.

'someone reversed into me while I was stationary'. In fairness, those Nissan Micras are difficult to see for people who drive proper cars.

To be fair the headroom in a Nissan Micra is generous.

Too many variables to make a straightforward call there.

I think the best way to find out is to ask your passengers. If people generally like getting into a car with you then you're doing something right.

If you find people making some unusual sounding excuses why they can take alternative travel rather than accept the lift you've offered them, there's a clue.

Then there's the person who is too polite to refuse, but if you look carefully, they may leave finger clutch indentations on each side of their seat.

Part of the skill of driving is being aware enough to avoid accidents too, surely, rather than just not cause them!

Not much you can do when someone ploughs into the back of you at a junction.

So, no.

Edit: just to add to this, I was a bit mad when I was a kid but never caused any accidents involving anyone else. Just took myself off the road a couple of times!

Well no, some like that you can't avoid. Like my 'reversing into me' example.

Sometimes there's not much you can do. My car got written off when I was stopped in stationary traffic and a 4x4 braked too late and went booming into the back of me. Not much chance of avoiding that. The only other accident I've had was sitting in a filter lane to turn right at a junction and a car transporter turning left swung out at the back end and scraped up the side of my car. Again, not really much chance of avoiding that.

It was the fecking A11.

It was busy as you like and I'm waiting patiently for a gap when some woman who was flying up behind me was staring up the A11 fancying her chances of outrunning a 40ft trailer lorry, if she put her foot down...

The one place she didn't bother to look was in front of her.

She shunted me some 20 feet and almost put me in front of the speeding lorry. I was standing upright on my brakes.

State of my car.
