How would you evaluate your driving?

So, today I saw a bumper sticker asking about "How was my driving?" The same question I am gonna ask, how would you evaluate your driving? In general, it was a fallacy, or self - deception that we all driving good, while others are driving crazily on the road. To other people, they would say the same to themselves. So, the real answer is so vague in here. Don't you agree?

It's so true. In multiple studies, when people are polled and asked if they think they drive better than the average person, most people say that they do. There are obviously some discrepancies with these responses since EVERYONE can't be better than average.

It is always a self - deception. People always thought they are better than others. What is the truth?

I don't think there is a black and white/right or wrong answer to that. It lies in your own perception. If people are willing to be honest in polls like I mentioned, I think everyone can admit that they make stupid mistakes when driving sometimes. For example, when you are exhausted from working all day or from driving for too long of a time period, you make more errors than you would when you are 100% alert. Does this make you a bad driver? I don't think so. If you do nothing to correct these situations, like pulling over to get out and stretch your legs- then yes, this seems irresponsible.

Hey I also saw these types of bumper with the same signs and it also has a phone number and ask people how they like his driving to report afterward, so I appreciate this a lot though. Thankfully I do not drive, I am just learning right now and I hope I will be a very good driver though.

I have only been driving for about a year now , and i believe that i am a good driver. I think because it is still new i am more cautious, and pay attention to what is going on around me, and not trying to do other things while im driving.

Clorissa my dear why are you asking this when you know full well that I take the bus everywhere as it is so convenient and there's no chance of the nice young bus driver getting lost, now is there my dear. Now your driving my dear is another matter, you hardly get chance with your car always being in for repair or gossiped about, just take the bus my dear and think of all the money you'd save too.
