most people intuitively perceive the fact that "the majority of drivers consider themselves above average" as human stupidity I intuitively perceive it as good drivers being clustered together near the top, with a few outstanding lousy drivers near the bottom. If you are not convinced, consider Bill Gates walking into a room full of college students - suddenly, almost everybody becomes below-average wealthy (if average == mean). That's true in my country even if Bill Gates doesn't walk in. Hell, perhaps it's true even in the US.
