In the modern era (since 1971), there have been hundreds of thousands of miles run, and 2 single car accidents, 1 of which was a team that would never have been invited currently, and the other accident was literally driven away from.

I know you only drive highly focused, and don't e.g. eat food or drink or adjust your radio (go look at the numbers!), so you certainly have the right to say this.

Because if you did, you'd be more dangerous than these "childish racing games".

Yes I normally do, I have laser projection on windshield in BMW of all info I need, rest is on steering wheel. The fluent connection with environment around car is worth every penny and less tiring. The only time I look elsewhere in the car is when stationary, and not many reasons to do so.

Anyway what does this has to do with breaking the law? Its the same vein as not paying taxes, 'I am better and above the rules'.


It's infracting the law, and the law is immoral and wrong, therefore not worthy to be followed.

Also, to be clear, I don't "normally" Cannonball across the country, I only do it under special circumstances. But I understand that you make the choice to drive inattentively even though it's a moral wrong and endangers others.
