Oh, in the really old, olden days, you could change the radio without taking your eyes off the road. It was easy to reach one of the five big chrome buttons on the radio and select by feel

Who gives a crap about what everybody else on the road is doing? It takes the same heads up skill to ride now as it always has.Must be winter,let the butt hurt whining begin........................... We all die of something.

Look around... many drivers are completely insulated from their surroundings within the cocoon of their cage, oblivious to the world outside.
But, I agree with twist: you just need to use the same riding skills you always have out there.

I always ridden like EVERYONE is out to kill me. They just about are with the gadgets in cars that they think is more important to play with than actually paying attention to driving. Since they have a loaded weapon pointing at you(vehicle) most of the time, maybe we could use a self defense plea if we just shoot the SOB's.

I think the problem is that back in the day, we let stupid pepole breed, and now we are stuck with their offspring continuing to multiply. Back in 87 on my base, we had a woman drive broadside into a duce and a half, she told the MP that because it was camouflage, she didn't think she was allowed to see it. So be careful, they are trying to kill you.

To me it hasn't changed- it's the not the population of different drivers, it's each individual driver that comes to close to me or causing me to react....seems about the same amount.
