They win by being in front and I win spending less on fuel...
You too? I guess we have something in common, for that

My tested reaction time was bit above 0.6 seconds when tested in advanced driving class, but it is mostly because paying attention and estimating other drivers at front and back, so there really is not much of surprises coming on road, I'm sure it is same for others who pay attention on their driving, like average driver on ecomodder, we all are trying to beat our best FE numbers, which requires lot more active driving than that average bored commuter does.
