Pace, it's like driving - I have tons of friends who have driver's licenses, but who have zero feel for driving and are dangerous.
I have one who's drives more than anyone else I know (100miles a day most days), yet still can't drive to save his life. Always too fast, not concentrated, talking, fiddling, always involved in episodes and parking accidents etc, blaming everyone else for being bad drivers when he's the dangerous one. Lovely guy and a dear friend, but not a good driver. No amount of experience is going to change this.
