My son is 16 and I have seen him do some crazy stuff over the last year. He just seemed to think he was an adult at 15 and could do whatever he wanted. I have no trouble believing this.
He is learning to drive now and one issue he has at the moment is with the sensitive throttle control on my wife’s VW Jetta. His right foot just seems to toggle between 0 and 50%, which makes precise control difficult.
I think its just something he has to learn.
The most common noob mistake is mistaking the brake for the gas
Yeah and my son’s early n00b mistake was to drive with his left foot on the brake and right on the throttle. I think he learned to do that driving go-carts. Doing that maks it harder for you to think in modal terms (stop or go) and I wonder if it was a factor here.
