Tailgating

Everyone claims they are a great driver and then they tailgate. The reason you shouldn't tailgate is because, not only does it put you at higher risk of hitting the person in front of you, it also increases the odds of a multiple vehicle crash occurring.

Tailgating is even more dumb in rain, snow or ice. Then again, the tailgater is getting some kind of satisfaction from trying to intimidate other drivers. Great people.

Old Drivers

Is it just me or do I spend a large amount of time avoiding accident situations with old people. I can't be dreaming about these folks driving 15 mph on the highway, switching lanes without looking, stopping in the middle of the road and just driving in a generally bewildered state. It's almost the same kind of driving as if you put a goat behind the steering wheel. However, the goat never brags about their sterling driving record.
