How dangerous of a driver are you?
I found this today. Interesting and fun little quiz. Be honest!
I scored a 82% (A)! Your driving level is: very safe

Someone else has been on stumbleupon! I got an 86% yesterday. Stupid phone...I get sleepy on long drives if I don't call someone...I don't think that should count.

The phone question is a bit unfair. I do use a bluetooth device integrated into my radio. It's not like I have my phone in hand while leaning on the door frame. None the less, not real dissapointed in the result ..

Long ago we used to judge the road trips by how many beers it was. I got an 82%. Which make me doubt any accuracy of this. Anyone who drives dunk can not be a safe driver.
Maybe it goes off of accidents and tickets. "Shrug"

I got 91%. Then I retook the test using the answers that I would have given 2 years ago, and got 65% (B). :-)
Guess Ecomodding (and age) have helped.

Clev -
Same thing happened to me. I got a 74% when I based it on my driving since 1984 (I have a few sub-15 MPH accidents under the belt). I retook it where I reinterpreted the meaning of some of the questions in my favor and got 87%.
I would have an "advanced" questionnaire that goes into much more detail.
I agree that age mellows the driver *and* adds a lot of "subconscious skill". I think it's like the number of hours you've logged as a pilot.

80% here. How is it that knowing how to drive various vehicles makes you unsafe?

My guess would be additional training, especially with motorcycle (I don't drive semi). They are heavy on the defensive driving training.
