- The first goal of driving is to stay alive. Other than driving
- crazy yourself, the most significant thing you can do to raise your
- chance of dying on the highway is to drive among people who
- are mad at you.
-
- This applies to all of left lane blockers, people with bright
- lights, motorcycles who run their brights during the day, and
- tailgaters. Maximizing the chance of being killed because a mad
- redneck did something stupid in your vicinity just doesn't
- seem, well, the goal.
