Advanced Driver training

Corroboration. Interesting.
In order to find the false premise, extrapolate: If more training made things worse then less training should make things better, and best of all would be no training at all.
That doesn't seem like a good idea, and it fails the common sense test.
What it really means is that the "advanced training" that WAS provided, was focusing on the wrong things.

That testing method doesn't always work.
In basketball shooting too high is pretty much the same as shooting too low.
Sometimes there's a sweet spot right in the middle.
But I agree.
The training gave them false confidence, which in turn made them cocky.
Don't get cocky.

Kinda why 2nd year riders have lots of accidents. They figure they have the beginner bug beat and push it a bit more.
A study I saw said, third year as well. That might be the ones that start small and then upgrade in year two.

You can get trained on advanced driving all you want but if you don't use the right skills at the right time and in the right place then the training is useless.
With young drivers especially they probably think that because they are trained in advanced driving that they can speed and do dangerous maneuvers anywhere, and they'll inevitably end up doing it where other drivers aren't expecting it or they'll do it where the road is not designed for such things.

Wait wait wait...so you're saying the road is NOT my personal race track? Buy my skills are so advanced that it's all the other drivers' fault...not mine! I'm better than all the other idiots on the road...
I'm actually looking to take some advanced driving courses, but mainly to learn how to GTFO of a bad situation...not create one.
People think that a little bit of skill in anything makes them an expert.
