That's actually funny. Though we see a lot of bad drivers here, like in any other country, we actually consider ourselves not so bad drivers at all. I've been around the world and don't find any nation particularly good in driving. If one, I find myself not a bad driver. I keep my distance, obey traffic rules, drive defensively and politely. I've seen drivers far, far, far worse in most other European countries. My worst experience (didn't drive myself here luckily) was Peru, but very closely followed by Malaysia (did drive here) and Italy (did drive here as well). In Italy the best way to explain their driving skills is by saying the rules a nearly suggestions instead of actual rules. ;P

Not only for driving - ANY rule is a suggestion: laws, taxes, driving, school, work... And when it is not, then there is a way to completely twist the rule so that it has no effect. It is the main point of Italian mentality, to which I'm partly alien and partly inside it.

(MQOTD rules and previous solutions)Malaysia was an easy drive; for me. Egypt can offer some interesting challenges, I believe the highway code there is simply drive in the shade and honk your horn constantly.

When we drive over Europe we keep tabs in stupid drivers by make and nationality. For makes of car, from this trip, the top five are: 4. Merc 3. BMW [a rare drop from the top] 2=. VW 2=. Skoda 1. Audi You can convince your friends and family of your magical ability by leaving a gap of 5 or 6 meters between you and the car in front and as if by magic an elephant Audi with a sunshine at the wheel appears! By nation, we didn't even bother rating anyone else, Belgium needs to stop driving. Special mention goes to the screaming wuck fit [see the CCC] who came around a blind corner at 6 am yesterday, travelling the WRONG WAY IN A ONE WAY TUNNEL, doing around 100 km/h. I don't know why, but maybe 30 seconds prior to this I had changed lane in the empty tunnel. If I hadn't I, along with my family and the kunt in the other car, would be dead.

Hahahahahahahaha - they're filthy casuals by Middle Eastern standards. Hell, Italian driving (the worst I've seen in Yurp) is casual by Middle Eastern

I luurrve the A3. Not. I used to bike in to the city that way too, I think around Robin Hood it would be safer just to get off the bike and walk down the middle of the outside lane.

I see you're using DENSE_RANK[^] instead of RANK[^]. ;P Normally, you would count the number of items that are ranked higher - if two makes are joint second, the next should be fourth, not third. You also forgot to start the list at 0.
4. Merc
3. BMW [a rare drop from the top]
1=. VW
1=. Skoda
0. Audi

I have had a couple of situations like that, with my family. Someone was watching out for you and your family, and it sure wasn't Dave.

Several years ago after receiving a speeding ticket, I decided that would be the last one and now refuse to go any faster than the posted limit. As for those rude, impatient drivers who flash their lights, honk their horns, or get so close that you can't even see their headlights, I have four words for 'em. Have a nice day! :) There are benefits, besides no tickets, for not speeding...the wife can't stand it and insists that you are allowed 7 mph over the posted limit, so she does most of the driving!
