Very bad example of safe driving as he is not wearing a seat belt.In Australia, some years ago the then PM Bob Hawke was seen in a new broadcast not wearing a seat belt. He was fined by the police.That is how a country should be run.

A test drive call not only for a seat belt but also an helmet. It can be anywhere.

This is NOT a test drive. It is a " feel the wheels " drive in a location driveway.
