Tail Gaters
On my way to hospital yesterday A.M. was 3rd in line behind an SUV traveling
about 65-68 in 55 zone (2 lane road). Little red car behind SUV was so close to the SUV that I couldn't see much of rear of SUV. SUV brake lights blinked on several times but little red car stayed tight. SUV began to slowly reduce speed and got down to about 20. Traffic heading east was heavy so none of us west bounders could pass. This continued for 3 or so miles. At the first business intersection the red car pulled into a McDonalds that is across from high school. The driver was a young lady around 16-18 YO. Student @ school? |

If that car were to hit the brakes for any kind of emergency, the motorcycle would smack against the bumper 150 milliseconds before the motorcycle rider even noticed anything. |
