I rarely check the speed limit. I always go with the flow in order to avoid accidents. It’s downright dangerous to drive the speed limit in some highways.
I usually go slightly faster or slower than most everyone else. It ensures i dont do my entire drive stuck in one of the packs that everyone seems to get caught up in. I’d much rather have half a mile of space between me and the next car than go the same speed as everybody else.
This doesn’t work in cities, or other states, but i spend my longest drive times going between cities in texas anyways.
This right here is what defensive driving is supposed to look like. If you have the option to distance yourself from the other cars on the road, that’s always best.
It baffles me seeing a group of cars on the road all bunched up with less than a second between them going 75. If there’s a hazard on the road that the cars behind don’t see, they’re all going to crash into each other when the guy in front slams his brakes.
Driving is all about awareness and predicting what others might do. I just assume at any point, anyone could need to suddenly brake hard. Plan accordingly and position yourself defensively.
