That sort of attitude of constant learning is found in drivers, but only "enthusiast" ones. Most drivers consider the car as just something to get from A to B, with as little thought as possible.

One of my issues is with accident reporting - why are serious road traffic accidents never reported on with the thoroughness of aviation accidents, and those reports publicised so lessons can be learned? People seem to think of RTAs like the weather, just inevitable and quickly forgotten about.

Oh and while we're on the subject, the driving test should be harder, and you should have to have a review at least every 10 years to keep your privileges. Might even be good for traffic congestion
