Wouldn't they need to be way too close? I was reminded of this when I drove home tonight and an SUV was way too close. Then I wondered if anyone ever actually gets close enough to hit the other car.

What is the correct procedure in that case? Normally, I would hit the brakes and pull over, but that would just make the damage worse, which might be okay, if you can get them to cover the repair bill.

The fun part was seeing light shine through red and blue plastic on top of the roof. The police finally went around.

I had my cruise control set to fifty-five in a fifty-five.
