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]]></description><dc:creator>Shelley Jamieson</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-08-05T13:05:53Z</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://driverthink.com/2008/06/13/how-to-avoid-rearend-accidents.aspx#comment-1120527"><title>Comment on How to Avoid Rear-End Accidents</title><link>http://driverthink.com/2008/06/13/how-to-avoid-rearend-accidents.aspx#comment-1120527</link><description><![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.]]></description><dc:creator>Henry</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-14T21:43:36Z</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://driverthink.com/2008/04/11/driving-on-the-edge.aspx#comment-1120520"><title>Comment on Driving on the Edge</title><link>http://driverthink.com/2008/04/11/driving-on-the-edge.aspx#comment-1120520</link><description><![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.]]></description><dc:creator>Henry</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-14T21:40:05Z</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://driverthink.com/2008/05/30/are-slow-cars-faster-than-fast-cars.aspx#comment-1119002"><title>Comment on Are Slow Cars Faster than Fast Cars?</title><link>http://driverthink.com/2008/05/30/are-slow-cars-faster-than-fast-cars.aspx#comment-1119002</link><description><![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.]]></description><dc:creator>Swamprat</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-13T21:34:59Z</dc:date></item></rdf:RDF>
