I have to agree with everyone here. I have been accident free for years because I have a very healthy fear and alertness for other cars. As I've become into a commercial driver, and been trained in safety driving. I learned something that many people seems to be unaware, tunnel vision. When a person is fixated at a certain item too long, the person develop a tunnel vision and in the peripheral side of the vision, they cannot see anything. It is especially dangerous for motorcyclist, and bicyclist as they are very small targets, and when people have tunnel vision, they cannot see this small target. So heed all the advices on this thread. Assume that the driver did not see you and act accordingly.
