Probably less than the cost of one fatal head on accident by idiots who

I've driven in Germany and the level of obedience to the traffic
rules is on a completely different level to what you experience in the
UK. I would almost go as far as saying it's absolute obedience.


You can't have followed many people through traffic lights.
