The Perils of Tailgating
The one thing that burns me up most about driving is people that tailgate me. On my way home a few minutes ago I happened across this accident a few blocks from my house. The accident had just happened but I did not witness it. The odds finally caught up to five tailgaters.
The only injuries I saw were in the lead car (the one that was not tailgating). A bus stop is located just in front of that lead car so I suspect he stopped for a bus - something the others behind him never anticipated. Thank goodness there wasn't a motorcycle in the pack.
Don't tailgate. Leave one car length per 10 mph between you and the car ahead of you.
