Well, I don't consider most drivers where I live to be good drivers. Since I come from a village, the level of education here is very low. And the drivers have very low awareness about traffic rules. They, uh, a lot of drivers here prefer rash driving, which is very much evident on the streets. And they completely disregard the traffic rules. And there are lots of accidents that are happening due to this neglect. And also, uh, they are not eager to learn and follow the rules. That means their ignorance is also one of the main concerns. That is why I don't think the drivers are actually good here.
