for me: she's the better driver unless there's snow on the road.

she takes all those evoc courses 4 times a year with a crown vic. She doesn't drive my car but I know she could smoke me in her squad car.

It's very scary to be a passenger while someone on her side of the family is driving. The concept of momentum and weight balance/transfer does not apply.

I remember once my wifes dad was driving a Camry, her mom in the passenger seat and three of us "kids" in the back. We were in a parking lot going over speed bumps and kept scraping the bottom. I tried to tell him to hit the speed bump at an angle and you wont scrape. The next bump we approach both her mom and her dad lift their butts off the seats as if it would un-weight the car so it wont scrape.

I pretty muched LMFAO at that point and did not get lucky that night:(

For one, I'm a safe driver, even if some of my friends think I drive too fast. For the other, my girlfriend doesn't have her license yet, so I kinda win by default anyways =P

There's an (experienced) driver in our car club who bought a retired police cruiser Crown Vic and ran it in a few of our sprints. I beat him every time.

...walls on both sides, I needed the wif to warn when the mirrors were getting too close to the walls. I only had to worry about oncoming traffic (at about 80 MPH). Try it; it's like a low level bombing run into flak. :)
