[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Often if you leave the space you need someone will just cut in front of you, so you need to figure what’s the most you can leave without that happening

Also don’t be so judgy[/quote]

Yep. It's impossible sometimes to leave the recommended amount of space. You'd need to keep slowing down every time a car cuts in front of you. Then you'll get rear ended by the car behind you that wasn't keeping enough space.[/quote]

This. My car has a sort of self-driving mode and it will maintain a safe distance when I enable cruise on highways. Of course, cars keep lane changing into the safe gap I leave in front of me...[/quote]

This. I pretty much always use my adaptive cruise control when driving at speed on the highway, but plenty of cars jump in my safe distance and my car slows down. I have thought that if more people used this feature, the roads would probably be safer.

[b]On a related note, I know someone who was at a red light and rear ended at full speed. [/b]Most likely the guy was on the phone, but I assume if his vehicle had automatic braking like mine does, his vehicle would at least have slowed down before hitting the stopped car in front of him. Self driving cars have to be an improvement given how many people look at their phone while driving. [/quote]

This is my biggest fear in DC driving, and why I don't let my son out of his seatbelt when we take Ubers until the very last minute[/quote]

Huh? How is this novel? Why wouldn't everyone in the car keep their belt on until the destination is reached?[/quote]
