[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"]My friend has been in 10 wrecks, caused all of them himself. He has totalled 4 cars. He has lost his driver's license.[QUOTE="Adrian_Cloud"] Why isn't he? Its a driving sim, if hes driven before then he is qualified; especially when GT5 isn't just full of exotic cars like some other games. Adrian_Cloud
However, he has driven a car, therefore according to you he is an all knowing source of information about driving. I should ask him some tips.
I feel bad for your friend, getting into accidents that frequently can cause serious post traumatic stress and i'm glad he survived. I'm not sure where i said that your friend is an all knowing source, since know one knows everything there is to know about cars to begin with. Explain your logic. Sure you did say that. He has driven a car, so he can judge the realism, as you said. Correct? So if driving a car is all it takes, then by your logic you already know all there is to know. Because if you don't, then someone can know more than you. And who would know more? Someone with more experience. But you said that all it takes to judge is having driven before. This puts everyone that has ever driven a car on the same level of qualification to judge the realism. So what you're saying is that someone like this has just as much experience as someone who drives professionally for their career. Or you are saying that experience doesn't matter. So here's your dilemma. You either retract your logic and admit it was wrong, or you have to stand by that logic and make the claim my friend that's been in 10 accidents knows just as much about driving as a professional race car driver. Either way you kind of lose, so it'll be fun to see the path you take. Sadly, I'm going to guess you'll try to worm around it like most people do in your position.
