Yes No

No
Do you watch BBC2 motoring programme, Top Gear
Yes No
Have you watched it since its revamp in 2002
Yes No
Do you feel that Top Gear promotes careless driving. If not, why?
No, at least not in myself. On the whole, I think Top Gear promotes healthy driving techniques and automotive awareness. The interesting way the program is presented may persuade viewers to attend a track day or drivers ed course. Information and car control experience behind the wheel may prevent accidents, where as following the rules will not always save you from a wreck.
Do you feel that Top Gear has an influence on drivers? Why?
Of course, whether it's good or bad quite depends on the person, as with anything. What you should ask is, "Do you watch Top Gear Regularly, and how do arrest a car from oversteer?"
Did you watch the episode aired 28th January 2007 in which the programme shown presenter Richard Hammonds Jet-propelled car crash.
Yes No
Do you feel that the way that Top Gear covered Richard Hammond's crash was justified? Why?
Kind of a vague question. I think the way in which the crash was presented was perfectly acceptable. They logically went through the crash and why it happened. It was a mechanical error, yes it could have been prevented. This past winter I know of a person who's car has been totaled on account of a worn tie rod, probably due to pot holes. You can blame winter, you can blame the sheared bolt, you can blame the city. In the end you just have to accept that shit happens.
