Was on my way in to work the other morning and one of the Islands most prolific coach operator drivers thought it would a good idea to drive behind me fairly close.... and when I say fairly close, I mean WAAAY to close.

I can see why the insurance companies are doing this from a financial perspective, but surely it just increases the number...

anything to make the driving test more about actual 'driving' is a good thing. Ain't that the truth!...
