I was as guilty as many of the kids on the streets today as far as doing things I shouldn't have and got the tickets to remind me, but the biggest difference I am seeing is the aggressive driving habits. I never went out of my way to harass fellow motorists. It is becoming all too common among this age group, but is definitely not limited to teenage kids.

Maybe this is just a big city Atlanta thing....I don't know.

The daughter of a friend of mine is on her learners permit and I have ridden with her a couple of times. Her mother spend the $$$ to send her to a driving course at Road Atlanta and the level of confidence and awareness between before and after was noticeable.
