		<content type="html"><![CDATA[I was rear ended yesterday.  This is my first accident involving another car (I backed into a pole once).  There was very little damage to my bumper - really just the imprint from the other car's plate holder and minor scratches.  Needless to say, I did not exchange information because I did not feel the need to pursue anything.  Was this a bad choice?  I would have exchanged info if there was significant damage.]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[Distance is thee number one to the reduction of stress, saving lives, eliminating accidents, traffic jams and road rage. It comes along in a system that is going to transform the way we drive. One car length per ten mph and the two second rule. Use them both at all times. Proper distance according to speed keeps you away  from the vehicle in front of you at all times...USE IT!!!, pass on the left at all times accept around left turns and approaching a red light the best you can, reduce your speed and increase distance in a right lane coming up to a entrance or exit and try to be curteous. It's not easy but, the more you do it the better it works and driving becomes a pleasure at all times.]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[This article made me feel good.  I have always striven to be a smooth driver to the point that it has become unconscious for me.  This is partly due to the fact that I get car sick easily and need a smooth ride.  I really don't think too much about it now except when I ride with other drivers and wonder if they realize how much they are jerking their passengers around braking quickly, using jerking motions that are totally unnecessary. I can feel every jerk!<br /><br />Awareness and anticipation are certainly important factors.  Another point, smooth driving means less wear and tear on the brakes.  My husband has commented many times that I am really easy on brakes. It is likely that gas mileage is better with smooth driving as well. <br /><br />All this to say that I enjoyed this article.<br /><br />--<br />IN GOD WE TRUST]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[I like the tips here. I have used them myself. I don't do it often enough, but looking through the car in front of you is a great idea that used to be taught in driver's ed.<br /><br />Rear end accidents will be aggravated if more communities and states adopt camera based enforcement. We need to make sure that we can slow down that momentum as well as be aware of our surroundings. <br /><br />Great column, by the way.]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[It is true that many of us feel that we are driving on the edge, however, it may not all be a bad thing. The truth is, fatalities have declined from 50,000 in the early 1970s to 43,000 today with far more cars on the road. Injuries are down as well.<br /><br />I wish that we had more highway miles here to counteract the number of cars on the road. The Interstate highway system needs to be doubled in size. <br /><br />I like faster driving and don't mind the NASCAR effect on urban freeways. I can't stand slow driving on otherwise clear roads. In a slow driving environment, I feel like a fish out of water.]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[I would have disagreed with you until today. It used to be the pickups and the SUV's hauling butt down the highway. Now, they are driving slower. I have not really changed my habits at all, driving a Saturn L100. If I need to, I will kick it up to 110 or just cruise at 70-85 mph. I usually get about 28-30 on long trips, so it doesn't matter to me. My average speeds haven't changed partly because the roads are noticeably less crowded.]]></content>
