When similar near-events happens often (local drivers are crap) then that's proof enough for me.

Whose opinion was that? Drunk drivers think they drive fine. Texters think they never miss a thing when they text & drive. Cell phone talkers are positive their driving skills are great. Park the car. Yolanda says “I was handling everything with as much focus, reaction time, reflexes, and attention as I ever did on a good day before I started using it…”

He had been a Sergeant leading a platoon of drivers. He was driving a DUKW on D-Day and at one point, was appointed as driver to an American General. He was in the lead truck delivering anti-tank ammo to the troops in Arnhem when an officer stopped the convoy and pointed out that a Tiger tank was just over the brow of the hill blasting everything that went over that hill! He was also moved to the Airborne and was on the supply drops to Berlin after WWII. I forgot to add that my Dad stopped driving at about 70 years old!

It's been about 40 years since I was around anyone who used it (or at least, anyone who used it in my presence) and the smell is long forgotten.

He sustained a scar on the meninges that left him with epilepsy. A lifetime of anti-epileptic drugs resulted. Sometimes, when he was particularly stressed he would have a 'fit'. From 1950 to when he gave up driving, he had just two crashes as a result. One didn't involve anybody as he drove into a wall at low speed. The other was at the end of day when he had just taken ownership of a new car. We were stopping to turn left but still at about 30 mph, when the car in front suddenly hit the brakes. My Dad had not noticed the small amber 'trafficator' on the nearside (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trafficators) and had assumed the vehicle wasn't going to slow down but continue at 40mph straight ahead. After we hit the car, it slewed to the other side of the road (nothing coming!) and we veered to the nearside, ending up in the ditch. That is the only collision with another vehicle my father could report after driving since WWII. (Where he was a driver!) The medicine he was on had recently been reduced and now had to be increased. 6-month-wait without a fit before he could drive again. Like me, If I have a fibrillation attack, I cannot drive for 6-months at least and my meds need to be reviewed. btw - I had my 6-month check-up last week and passed clear. Next time, I will be getting a new ICD/Pace-maker as the 4-year-old battery in this one is nearly spent.

Some of it from cars (hopefully parked) or from homes. Don't care for the smell. Smell MJ on the route home. Some of it from cars (hopefully parked) or from homes. Don’t care for the smell.
