Yeah, but that saying is absolutely brain dead, because if you take it literally it states anyone that has ever missed their exit is a good driver, which clearly isn’t true
it said that good drivers SOMETIMES miss their exits.
it did not say ALL good drivers miss their exits. it did not even say that ALL good drivers sometimes miss their exits. it said that there are times where good drivers miss their exit. there’s no imperative.
even if you want to be the most pedantic person on this autism boat of a website; in this case you’re just plane wrong.
Except it doesn’t, you got the implication wrong. If I say “Astronauts sometimes eat apples” that does not imply that all people who eat apples are astronauts. The statement can still be true even if some/most people who miss their exits are not good drivers.
You’re focusing on the wrong part. If I say “astronauts never eat oranges” then that implies that if someone eats an orange (misses an exit), they are not an astronaut (are NOT a bad driver).

false dichotomy. There are not strictly “good drivers” and “bad drivers”, there are also “okay” drivers.
it doesn’t say that at all.

How many times did you get dropped on your head as a child?
Oh, you’re just American
It says bad drivers never miss their exits.

Everyone look!
