Logic versus emotion in business

In Australia, every Volvo driver you come across -without exception - does something dumb on the road. And drivers of those vehicles are thought to be &$#@%^*&*&% (a meanace and danger on the road).

If this is common knowledge down here (and it appears to be) what would possess someone to buy a Volvo? They know that as soon as they buy one, their driving will go down the drain and they'll become the scurge of all other drivers.

Maybe that's the answer... they are so unaware of how people think of Volvo drivers, they buy their Volvo and then drive totally unaware of what's going on around them.

Hmmm

I'm curious... are Volvo drivers a bread unto themselves in your country? Are they as bad a drivers where you live as they are down here?
