How Many Licks: On The Road To Safety

Many travel woes are anticipated as Inauguration day approaches. Conservative estimates anticipate a turnout of at least two million people, but some early projections estimated even double this amount. Naturally, in situations such as this, the use of public transportation is highly encouraged. Nevertheless, we also know this event will be cause for many additional cars on the roadways, and in light of coming events, I would like to highlight a short video clip.

I know, I know. This is a bad driving habit we’ve all been guilty of at one point or another. However, sometimes it’s good to learn from the mistakes of others and not repeat them yourself (thanks Bridges and Powerlines!). Let’s take a moment to review an important rule in indie driver’s safety. DON’T E-MAIL IN THE CAR ON YOUR iPHONE (or any phone) IF YOU ARE THE ONE DRIVING IT.

And for that matter, don’t text, play BrickBreaker, check Facebook or any other activity on your phone that would cause you to hit another car….twice….in ten minutes. The two million to four million other people traveling will thank you for it. Because wouldn’t it be unfortunate if the thing you hit turned out not to be just another vehicle. Remember kids–safety first!
