Traffic Safety

There is a proven way to avoid getting into an accident.  I have said it a million times, the first three rules of driving are "Pay Attention, Pay Attention, and then Remind Yourself to Pay Attention".

Guess what?  I am not the only one that says this.  The NHTSA just released a study on Real World Driver Behavior.  Their results in a nutshell, inattention is the leading factor in most crashes and near-crashes.  As much as 80%!  They plugged in 100 cars, and drove them over 2,000,000 miles to get the data.
