[GH85Carrera]

On two occasions over the many years I have been driving I saw something way ahead that made me slow way down, and I watched traffic right next to me crash right into the pileup ahead. On a regular basis in regular city traffic I can see the light ahead turn yellow, so I let off the gas and start slowing down. While others either run the light, or make emergency stops.

On many occasions I the light turns green and I start to go, and then see some idiot running the light, and I stop, even though I have the green light. I saw the car next to me miss a very bad crash by inches.

There are almost no "accidents" they are crashes. 99.99% due to bad driving. Driving too fast for conditions, or total inattention.

I was at a full stop wanting to turn left into my office building parking lot. I learned to watch my rear view mirror more than the oncoming traffic. Some lady was reading the paper and was not slowing down in her Suburban. It was the first time I did a drag race start dump the clutch and maximum go in many years just to avoid a major rear end crash. She only missed me by inches. It is one reason I don't carry a gun in my car, because I would have shot the dumb broad as she went back to reading the paper and kept on driving.
