Does anyone want proof of this? Go to Germany. Enjoy the Autobahn. After paying out of my nose for a license, I was able to rent a BMW and drive it. I still to this day never pass on the right. Ever. I did see a few Porsches and Mercs pass me at brake-neck speeds. BTW, Germany has the safest highway system in the world.

People actually practice their driving skills while on the autobahn. No cell phones, coffee cups, hamburgers etc... It is serious driving for serious people. When there is an accident, it is pretty henious.
Driving a modified car can lead to high insurance rates, license suspension due to vehicle profiling. Police officers get briefed on items to focus on while on watch. If you give them a reason to stop you, they will, and warnings are not likely to happen. It is like wearing a sign that says "Hit Me" and complaining when you get punched.
