Just food for thought for those of you who think you are sending messages to drivers by speeding up or slowing down.
Couldn't agree more Chip. The only reason I mention speed at all is that I want to give the driver that is pulling out of a drive, if they see me, the impression that I am going through as I am legally allowed to, but I always allow myself the time/distance/speed to stop if I will need to.
