Actually, the last thing the MSF instructor said to the whole class was "Be especially wary of mini-vans". When asked why, his reply was they're usually driven by soccer moms that are distracted by their kids, their cell phone, or both.
Speaking as a former MSF instructor, all that tells me is your instructor wasn't too smart either. You should watch out for all vehicles the same. (her van could be in the body shop and she might be driving a rental car today)
He may of not been smart, but he was good. He did the 20' U-turn box 2 up on a bagger. Sharpening boards.....
Great guy - name is Dean.

True, but I still see more soccer moms in SUV's. I can't think of anyone that has a minivan (that I know personally at least).

Oh and welcome PhoenixClassic from a neighbor!
Thanks Crypto. From your avatar, my guess is we probably sat next to each other, but never met. Maybe Christie's?
I thought you looked familiar! [sm=lol.gif]
