You have probably heard of this, where someone is so stupid, they think they're very smart.
If you want to skip this, I'd just mention that most of us think we're above average drivers. That's a bit impossible, since say 75% think they are above average...which is scientifically impossible, since 50% is average! Here joke tellers are measured.

ReplyDeleteIt made me stop and wonder at my own intelligence. Well, perhaps in some endeavors I've moved into a mythical belief state...like wishing for peace on earth!
DeleteI agree with Tom above! A driver today has to drive defensively, there are some crazy drivers out there.
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a wonderful weekend.
Oh yes, there are so many folks that I consider to be "on speed" who veer in and out of traffic that's just going 70 mph on the interstate.
DeleteBeing stupid is like being dead. You don't know that you are dead.
ReplyDeleteInteresting concept...I wonder if these are zombies!
DeleteBarbara, Very interesting but given today's politics and divisions, we have plenty of proof with people believing what is easy or convenient for them to believe. Some of the 'smartest' people I know (book learning) are some of the dumbest people I know. Hyper ego is a true sign of dumb! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteVery sad we don't have the data volume to watch the videos here! And yes, some drivers I really wonder how they even made it out of bed, let alone into the car! Certainly they are not like me, the best driver in..... hahahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteDe facto since I can work from home I have no car no more and I do not miss it!
Barbara, I have always enjoyed John Cleese's sense of humor.
