Well to be honest, its not fair to say that all asian people drive poorly, as japanese drive quite well, but the rest! Lemme say that stereotype has been EARNED.

Now, however, the stereotype is self-sustaining. When a non-asian person cuts me off in traffic I just assume they're an ***hole and think nothing of it, but when an asian person does it, I think that asian people are bad drivers, and I usually see them plastered to the steering wheel trying to see over the dash, which further reinforces the stereotype. I don't notice asians that drive well, as I don't usually notice anyone who drives normally. In order for the stereotype to die, EVERY asian person would have to drive perfectly for years, not cutting anybody off or making stupid traffic maneuvers. Even then, comedians and writers would still poke fun at the stereotype as it is fairly funny. I don't know if there have been any studies as to whether descent has any bearing on your driving abilities but I will say this: asian people typically have terrible eyesight.

In defense of my asian brothers.

You and your friend do not need medical evidence -but both of you do need have some common sense.

A driver can turn his head to compensate for the lack of peripheralvisionso the lack of peripherial visions would not make a person a poordriver.By Occam's razor, the lack of peripheral vision is not sufficientor a necessary reason and thus it is eliminated.This would leave only the negative stereotypingof a driver's ability base on race - which of course is racist.

Thus your initial assertion was not only idiotic but racist as well.

"asian eyes" dont obstruct the pupil and like the above statement said one can still compensate for lack of peripheral vision. My conclusion is that bad asian drivers are simply noobs.

Looks more like progress to me...

[car nut]

It was such a b**** to get out though. I can't wait for this swap to be finished.

[Vanessalalinda]

awwww poor car nut!!!!

[Ace2cool]

You already have the VH45, right?

[car nut]

Yup. It's ready to go in once I clean up the engine bay, remove all the junk I don't need and swap to the other crossmember (modified to fit the VH45 mounts). Then I still gotta re-attach everything, replace all the fluids, buy some big a** electric fans (not really enough room to run a clutch fan with a thick radiator) and probably cut my hood. Oh and then I get to install all my suspension goodies. I miss not having a car.
