Agressive Driving
I just posted on the "safety and testimonial" section about what I nearly caused.
In posting that, I could not help but think of the 120 mph+ Florida freeway racing encounters posted regularily on the "kills" section.
I had a very close encounter. I hope you more agressive drivers are taking into concideration the unexpected.
Personally ... if I wanted to find out if my 1999 SL500 could do 155 mph ... there would be a lot of unihabited, striaghtline pavement ahead of me.
I'm not saying I will not do that. I just can't imagine doing it in a urban setting.

Like you said, expect the unexpected, even on an unihabited, striaghtline pavement ahead of you scenario something could happen, it takes all kinds.
Whe I read aggressive driving I thought you'd tell us about somebody being agressive to you, agressive doesn't mean fast driving either.

I was referring to my own driving that day ... overly aggressive I think, in hind sight. I felt more than a little foolish ... with such a close call.
