LOL that was what I was thinking too! I think even though we might hinder traffic some... the overall safty of nearly everything we do is safer than being a reckless driver (note, he didn't say careless, but reckless!)

From Wiki:

Quote:
Reckless driving is often defined as a mental state in which the driver displays a wanton disregard for the rules of the road; the driver often misjudges common driving procedures, often causing accidents and other damages. Reckless driving has been studied by psychologists[1] who found that reckless drivers score high in risk-taking personality traits. However, no one cause can be assigned to this state. There are some states, such as Virginia, where mental state is not considered, but rather a set of specific violations can be deemed reckless. Excessive speed by itself is sufficient for a reckless driving conviction in some jurisdictions (e.g., Virginia).
Has anyone here on ecomodder ever been in a wreck because of your ecomodding ways?
