Education in any form is wasted on them. If it wasn't for flat interstate, they would be in serious trouble. Then they come to Deals Gap and go 5 mph and definitely will not use pulloffs.
I saw an awesome example two weeks ago when I was renewing my carry permit at the DMV. He was arguing with the DMV lady for failing his practical and screaming about how he had been riding for 17 years.

In all fairness though, a full up HD touring rig is not the best thing to be taking your test on... and frankly, those tests are bullshit anyway. All lowspeed manuvering... I'm a competent rider and I SUCK at the low speed stuff.
