Dojj,
Iain's right about the class 1 drivers !! Difference bein between them & Schuey is that their taught with traffic, pedestrains, over road users, obsticles, on coming vehicles, lights & the unknown in mind.
Where as Schuey was taught with a clear race track & everything going in the same way (supposed to anyway).
I honestly believe if you were to stick my old man & Schuey in identical cars & race em round a track Schuey would win, but the complete oppersite if it were to be round Brixton or the city & my old man would win & while winning, he'd be comentating tellin you everything thats going on including all road names etc !! He's the best driver I've ever had the pleasure of bein in the car with, worked traffic in Brixton for like 33 years, now up Scotland Yard & been offered a training job up at Hendon, he's that good !!
From a driving perspective, I've got nothin but respect for the Class 1 drivers !!
