A fast bad driver won't last long. Tailgating IS bad driving, but I doubt that fast drivers in expensive cars will very often risk it. If you want to see GOOD driving, get off the North American highways, and drive the German Autobahns for a while. The speed may be twice as fast (literally) as on our highways, but it feels MUCH safer. Not many oafs clog the left or middle lane of an autobahn; it is usually such people who complain about tailgaters, because they are the ones who generate the frustration that leads to tailgating. -- Martin Taylor {allegra,linus,ihnp4,uw-beaver,floyd,ubc-vision}!utzoo!dciem!mmt
