This used to be a characteristic of ovloV drivers.  "You're safe in one
of these, so you really don't need to worry about the outside world."

For a few months now, I've been saying that SUV ownership was improving
the standard of ovloV driving, because the _real_ dickheads were
climbing into 4WDs.  It _really_ came home to me the other evening, as I
returned from my daughter's boyfriend's house the other side of town at
a fair lick - I suddenly came upon a roundabout with _two_ 4WDs that had
to negotiate each other's priority and then mine.  I _knew_ they would
get it wrong, and at the last minute try to avoid each other and take
out the 'easy option' - me!

And guess what they did.  _BOTH_ of them were in the wrong.
