to disappoint you people but am nowhere near what you may be thinking. i still make sure i have more than sufficient braking distance at the front and i still step aside when a vehicle gets too close to my behind..but, if the road ahead me is free, i just take a glance at all the models of the vehciles on my right..my horn is still slightly used, reserved for those unexpected ignoramus who suddenly apppears without looking around first when coming out of a park state or when turning right or simply not knowing what defines right of way..nevertheless, am a defensive driver and i yield, most of the time, if i can help it...

..it is not surprising, though, to find drivers here, who turns off their headlights during the night and then suddenly turns them on high when they're right there at your back - those are the near near-misses that am always on the look-out if i had to go out at night..

..i know am going to miss my engine which is there when i need it the most..this kind of responsiveness may not be working on an automatic, i tend to believe...
