Finnish driving school, a lesson the MTO should learn
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/T...nen_199772.htm
Finnish driving and rallying, Top Gear Style. But pay attention to the first couple minutes - James May describes driver training in Finland. They take it VERY seriously - SIX lessons on the the skid pad to get your license. This is what we should be doing here, but we'd rather slap draconian fines as a band aid solution rather than solve problems.
Fantino, are you listening? No, of course not, you're making an *** out of yourself trying to defend tasers with some one-off study you refuse to identify that nobody in the media can find anywhere.
WTF is wrong with this province?

Again, good find. I think I have done only 3-4 skid pad so far.
Also, I am pissed at Fantino too when I saw that on news. If he is so believed in what he is saying, say that loud like a week after the incident, not after 6 months or so.

Sweden's the same way - most folks fail on thier first try - VERY hard to pass - only the truly capable are on the roads. It's a great place to drive because of that.
If the oft cited matra was taken seriously at MTO (driving is a privledge, not a right) then only the truly deserving would be on the roads and we'd be a lot safer - moving a lot faster.
