I got my first driver's license on a 1957 Morris Minor, and the back seat is/was
truly familiar to me ... er ... so I sort of know what you mean... :-)

Does anyone have any firm figures on the proportion of licensed drivers who went
into the western armies in WW2, vs that of those who had never previously
driven? I'm constantly uncovering comments regarding an innate lack of skills in
this general area at that time, which strikes me as strange considering it's
taken for granted now.
