I hate driving
I hate being behind slow drivers
I'm a very inpatient driver mostly because I'm always in a hurry.
MOOOVE! :smile:

All things being equal (age, sex, education, etc.) which personality type is the:

- Safest driver
Any n00b driver. Such cautious little dipshits. GODDAMN I HATE THEM.
- Most-dangerous driver
Probably an extravert of some kind. I'm thinking ENTJ. Those assholes are driving 15 above the speed limit out their driveway.

- Most absent minded driver
INs.
- Most skillful driver
STPs. SFPs could be good, but they've got someone driving for them while they give themselves a pedicure/talk on phone.
- Least skillfull driver
NFs (you're going to have to trust me on that one...
- Loves driving the most
ISTP
- Hates driving the most
ENTP (me), because there aren't enough goddamn STPs on the road. Fucking SJs are marginal in everything, including safety, crashing, paranoia, skill, and annoyance. They're not even annoying enough to be thrown off the road by the cops. It's so fucking frustrating.

I hate driving, that is because I hate paying fines :( Being an ESTP is bad in this male-anal-prison-bitch-with-a-dress-society.

Ok, that's the weirdest way of saying "I hate rules", that i've said today =) Believe me, I can elaborate on that subject for HOURS:

Same deal here.

Before I had a drivers license all I wanted in life was a car. Ten years, numerous speeding tickets and a revoked license later, I still like driving but hate commuting with a passion.

Roads trips are awesome but I dread the daily "grind" to work. Especially when the weather is bad. It's one thing to slow down in the rain but if I could walk faster than the guy in front of me is driving perhaps he should move from the left lane and let the rest of us pass.

BTW, it's only fair that I post my answers.

- Safest driver - ISTJ

- Most-dangerous driver - ENTJ or ESFJ (IMO, emotions cloud rational decisions)

- Most absent minded driver - INTP

- Most skillful driver - ISTP

- Least skillfull driver - INFP or ISFP (because they simple don't care)

- Loves driving the most - Not sure.

- Hates driving the most - Not sure.

- Doesn't care about being able to drive - See Least skillfull driver.

I'm going to add one: Most Patient Driver.

Not to go off on too much of a tangent but which function is responsible for patience? I know this isn't a well phrased question but I can't think of a clearer wording.

Depends on what we mean by patient.

I would suspect S is more patient with details while N is more patient with intangibles.

Good point. Which type is least likely to get annoyed (b/c they are the most patient) by delays, heavy traffic and general driver stupidity?

P, maybe SP, since they make the best of existing realities.

I absolutely love driving. Been driving for about 17 years now, never had an accident, never got a ticket, maybe I am just a lucky airhead, but I think I am a pretty okay driver. I drive every chance I get, and don't usually lose it at the shitty drivers here in New York.

Although in Michigan this past weekend, those people very rarely turn on their signals to merge and it is highly annoying, along with flashing red lights at the majority of the traffic lights. What the hell is that about? The only time that happens in NY is when there is a power outage and the light goes to the default standby of "HEY, be careful, I'm not working properly", but in Michigan I guess they do it on purpose.
