What he says is true, I was stationed in Germany for two years, thier drivers are required to go thru drivers training, which makes ours look like a joke, and it costs them 1000s of EUROs. (not sure about amount but in low 1000's) they are required to have so many hours under different driving conditions before they can get thier license. This makes the majority very good drivers...when I was there one of the most dangerous roads in germany was a small 10 mile stretch from one U.S. base (where housing was located) to the primary base, all american accidents/fatalities.
but i was stationed thier in 2000-2002
