Before my father let me take my driver's license test, he made me drive an empty parking lot in reverse. I had to stay in the lines. I also had to do a slalom of small islands in reverse in the parking lot. I just might be the best reverse driver ever. His rationale was "If you can do this in reverse, then you can do it going forward."

I used to pick up my friend and drive in reverse up the street and turn corners to go to the local convenience store. It wasn't a main road, so the likelihood of an oncoming car, or a rear-coming car, was lower. Still stupid though, but I was only 17.
