I do drive like a normal person. I have no tickets. I've never caused an accident. I am a very considerate driver.Originally Posted by LiL Scrappy
However, shit happens, be it drivers who are not quite as nice, or the huge thunderstorms that roll through occasionally. Or, god forbid, snow.
Seriously, it's very simple. It's all about knowledge and application. You can read about vehicle control all day, but until you get a feel for it with your own car, it's just not the same. Nor is it useful if you don't practice it occasionally, because in cases like these, reactions are essentially instinctive and will rely most often on muscle memory and ingrained emergency response... I mean, this is the -entire- reason that most cars are FWD today, because most people's instinctive reaction in an emergency situation is to slam on the brakes in a straight line. That type of reaction works best in a FWD car. In can work in every car... but does NOT go well for certain cars with certain amounts of power in certain situations in certain types of weather.
This isnt' rocket science, lady, it's just me wanting some analytical and applied information. That's all.
