I drove when I was in Scotland last May. I, too, was amazed at the driving characteristics over there. I have driven in some of the bigger cities in the US, but I was aghast at how fast the Scots (or tourists) drive.
I recall quite clearly... I was driving in the Highlands... curvy two lane mountain road... raining... low visibility... and, while doing 70mph, getting flashed to pass by a BUS!
