I tried to be honest with my answers and still got  "You scored a 64% (B)! Your driving level is: a little risk"
Some may disagree  :shock:

93% (A).

But it's not exactly an accurate measure of how dangerous you are as a driver  :roll: It may only be intended as a bit of fun, but some people take these things seriously.

Some of the questions are a bit faulty to my mind - take the one about signalling. I answered "most of the time", because I tend to look around for other traffic and if there isn't any I don't bother - who would I be signalling to?  :lol:

Exactly my point. I think you should answer 'all the time' based on the fact you do it all the time it is necessary!

95%, mind you things like indicating etc, was drilled into me as I took my driving test and first few years driving in Germany, and you have to by law to indicate, and other differences still work for me

Using mirrors, signal manuouvre method from diring wagons too, speed, nah not an issue with the motors I drove most of the time, my got i'm turning into a doddering old fart behind the wheel :'(

Two points here....

Is that not down to observation skills which, IMHO, is the single most important thing to learn when driving? I think you will find the UK Police driving training is based very much around observation and dealing with situations appropriately. That may include not signalling when it is unnecessary. The theory being, the fewer things you *have* to do, the more your brain can concentrate on the important things.

And.....
Signalling is an only an aid to other drivers. Those drivers should be able to drive without the need for other people informing them of what they are about to do. And nobody should assume that just because a driver is signalling that he/she actually is going to make that turn.

As I say, I don't think signalling has any bearing on how safe a driver you are. It's only there as a courtesey to other drivers. However, I do strongly believe in courteous driving so I signal on every occasion where it may help other road users.
