    1. Foot off the gas. You will slow down.
    2. Don’t lose your nerve
    3. They’re gonna pass and then maybe find speed traps for you

      I guess this is probably safe. /r/dashcamgifs makes me want as much space as possible between me and the other 2-ton projectiles.

      If driving were a sport where you got points/safety for being right, I would drive very differently. I have right of way over that person parked in the intersection? Back to a save point for them!

      I forget where she got it, but my mom sometimes quoted a nursery rhyme ending with “he was just as dead as if he’d been wrong.”
