My father taught me to drive. He grew up in NYC and for some reason
(I was good in school, too boring) expected me to grow up and drive
trucks/heavy machinery. So he taught me all sorts of useful things
like parking in a space barely big enough for a car (I learned in
his car), driving backwards using just the side mirrors, how to
curse like an Iron Worker (my dad was an Iron Worker). Oddly enough,
I wasn't allowed to curse, go figure.

Anyway, I find all of this discussion very interesting but there is
one lesson that new students are no taught (and I don't know how to
teach it so don't ask) and that is how to predict the behavior of
other drivers. It's something I use every day (I'm a long distance
cyclist, it keeps me from getting killed by much of the stupidity
that folks use as common sense).
