"Helpful Tips" from "Deputy Craig"

It never ceases to amaze me that the ISP, WSP, or any other agency get on TV and preach the outdated and unworkable "carlength for 10mph" following distance.

I was taught long ago "2 seconds."

I've noticed that AARP preaches "3 seconds."

SO TODAY "Deputy Craig" on one of the Spokane networks, was telling us FFFFFFFOOOOOOOUUUUUUUURRRRRRRR seconds between you and the car ahead.

We havin' a contest, here, or whut?

the way i was taught was 1 car length for every 10mph behind lets be safe out there i see to many people tailgateing why do people have to be right on your bumper at any speed let alone when your doing 75mph you can't stop with out hit the guy in front of you and don't tell me you can and most will blame it on the guy they hit back off and live if your worried about being late leave a little soon
