what do you mean? you need to have a grand-dad who owned a car to have road sense? or need to own a car firm? or automobile engineer? or is it an important factor to learn driving before you turn 15 to become a good sane driver?

what do you mean by "background of association"?

No offence Burnt Rubber, but if you spend time sitting near the driver, even
if you are not actually watching, it does help and over the years, by the time you get to the age when you are allowed to drive, you have a lot more road sense than someone whose first interaction with a car is in the driver's seat. Not everyone is so in love with driving that they spend time honing skills. They just set off on the road and are a risk to other road users. I do not have the extra qualifications you expect me to suggest, but I have been a safe driver since I first started driving.
