This may have been posted on DU before but if it was I didn't see it. It contains an important message that bears repeating...

1. You have to drive your car and the other drivers too

What that says is you have to have full control of your car while anticipating what the other driver is going to do as well. There is no time for silly little things like texting, changing the radio station or picking up that soda from the cup holder.

Yes other drivers make mistakes and you have to be able to react weather it was a mistake or not.

How many times do you wish you could put it in stop as soon as you made a bonehead move? Or the other driver does?

2. Exactly, liberal N proud. Thanks for your comment. nt

3. Yes, if you can SEE another car do not pull out...we think we can know

the velocity of an object coming at us...but our instincts are pathetically un-honed

4. Oh FFS! They are both idiots!

Both of them are driving on the wrong side of the road.
