I think I'll never be brave enough to drive a car in the U.S..[/FONT]

I understand... while I am a very patriotic American, one of the few things that I must hang my head in shame about is the skill of our drivers. I spent two years in your country, and LOVED every moment of driving on the roadways and, of course, the Autobahn. You drivers are highly skilled, extremely courteous, and are respectful of other drivers. We are not as fortunate here: The training process for drivers is not nearly as good as yours is, and the penalty for not having a driver's license here in the U.S. is a joke... so many drivers on the road have no license. Drivers will drive slowly, all day long, in the passing lane (left lane), and haven't a clue what the right lane is for. Bottom line is that, yes, driving here in the U.S. can be hazardous and frustrating, compared to the skilled and courteous drivers that Germany offers. I respect your decision to avoid driving here.
