Gold for yah Zorgon, , that was truthfully funny.

For some reason I failed to see the humor.  Then again, I have nearly always been the better driver and My partners have always wanted Me to drive.

Then again, I have nearly always been the better driver and My partners have always wanted Me to drive.

Or they were afraid of the consequences.

Or they were afraid of the consequences. 

Huh?  I didn't want to drive.  They insisted.

For some reason I failed to see the humor.

That is because women THINK they are good drivers   Had one in Winnipeg once was snowing... she was in the right lane, then suddenly decided to go 90 degrees across 6 lanes to go into the mall. Everyone else hit brakes sliding all over the place. Fortunately no one hit anyone.  And she looked back shaking her head at all the crazy drivers

Fortunately a cop was in mess and read her the riot act, charged her with reckless driving

Sometime justice is served

My wife parking....





Me parking....

Well it is not that *I* thought I was better.  The GUYS said so.  I was thinking once of becoming a race car driver.

(Also, I used to beat loads of guys racing up Angeles Crest every Sunday on My SR500 motorcycle.  But since You have never seen Me drive, go ahead and believe that men are all better.  )

Not the consequences of your driving, the consequences of having you on their side while they were driving.

My wife parking....

I once witnessed a case like that on the parking area behind the building where I live. It was a woman, with another woman outside the car trying to help her, but she didn't follow the other woman's instructions and, like the one in the video, appear to think that the wheels can turn only to one side. After 20 minutes I stopped watching because I was on my lunch break and had to get back to work, but she remained there for 10 more minutes, with the helper outside laughing for half the time.

Oh, I was the ORIGINAL biker babe!  LOL!

I have never created issues.  I rarely notice Others' driving - except a few times (three or four, maybe?) when something really stupid was done.

Regarding that other parking video   That stunt is actually one of the first you learn when Rally driving... called a handbrake turn.

It can literally save your life and impress an audience   You make a 180 degree turn in seconds and can come from 100 MPH to a full stop.

I once watched Canadian champion Walter Boyce do this on the spectator stage (where all the cameras were...  He came down the icy road at about 120mph, did a 180 turn, jammed it into reverse, did a second 180 turn and came to a perfect stop at the checkpoint car   so close his navigator just had to reach out the window to get the time stamp

Flawless  2 180 degree turns no swirving and full stop from 120 mph on ice.

My one claim to fame is that on one Rally I beat him because he came over a hill airborn and ended up in a swamp, his new factory racing suits covered in green slime   That is the beauty of Rally...  you never know the outcome. I took second place in that one and we had no sponsors

A racing instructor showed me how you can stop a car quickly if you lose traction on ice or oil... stay off the breaks, hit the accelerator and toss it into a controlled spin (each spin reduces speed by half)  You need room to do that but it works The hand brake turn can do the same thing but as the video says  you need practice  LOTS of practice
