these are the same things that happen to drunk people and are multiplied because of their drunkness.
most drunk drivers with a 1.0 dont get in there car, start it, and then floor it into a bus just because they've had a few drinks. they get distracted or whatever just like regular accidents.
if more people were defensive drivers, say goodbye to alot of accidents. I know if I'm driving really late down a road and see a car commming toward me, i move to the right a bit, and pay fucking attention as he comes by so I can move away fast if need be, not lighting a smoke, changing a cd or whatever.
Deffensive driving is the key to not getting in an accident. Only time I've been hit was by an old man in my old neighborhood who gunned it out of his driveway without looking.
