That makes sense, Vinny. That explains why I almost never see police or fire vehicles in accidents (except in movies). Of course, you also train people, a concept alien to the American drivers licensing system.
Steve--I agree 100%. I am a 15-year PCA driving instructor and I don't even like to talk much to students over the intercom. Much prefer to debrief them after the sessions.
Funny story: An instructor buddy of mine has a Cadillac whatever-it-is with the corvette engine. He brought it to the track. He was braking hard from about 140 at the end of the straight, and got a call from a concerned young lady from OnStar, asking him if he was OK because they had received a report of a "sudden deceleration from high speed." It happened two more times that same day. Talk about distraction!
