Taking the latest release GTA 4 as an example would you say that a game like this encourages drink/drug driving and reckless driving? What sort of people, if any, do you think could be affected by the portrayal of driving in videogames?
Do driving games have any impact on a drivers skills/attitudes? Can computer games improve driving?
Does street racing games mean that people no longer need to street race as they have an outlet in the game?
It'll be interesting to see where this thread leads.
