"Compulsory cycling as part of driver training ..."

I wouldn't have a problem forcing Forby drivers to attempt some precision parking in a Corolla to demonstrate how poor their vehicle is at parking, unless mounting a gutter is needed.

I think you should be forced to prove you can park your urban assault vehicle before you are allowed to buy one. That would reduce their numbers.

It certainly raises the bar. My father in law lent me his 2009? Hilux with long tray. I think it was 2.7m long? Longest vehicle I have ever used. Tried to park it in a teeny spot in Rhodes shopping centre. 5 attempts, and a metre out the front of the space? I didn't have other options. there is no way that the below average Forby driver is good at parking them. Just a bare pass if they are lucky. I had full visibility and still couldn't comfortably park it.

Also realised that the nature of that ute allowed me to be incredibly aggressive if I chose. Mount gutters, force lane changes (Alu tray), I have felt the power and it corrupts. so get the Forbys into a vulnerable situation so they realise what fear on the road is like.
