Topic	C/D: you don't tailgate people, even if they're going slow
ContraPop 08/11/17 10:53:09 AM #10:	On the highway, if you are driving somewhere that is 20 miles away, the driver in front of you is going 60 MPH and you want to go 75 MPH, that slow driver is costing you exactly 5 minutes (assuming you never get the opportunity to pass them over the 20 miles). On a small road, if someone is going 30 in a 35, that 5 MPH you really feel is being taken away from you is costing you 0.08 miles per minute. Every mile you are behind that driver is costing you a whopping 17 seconds. Just some things to think about next time you feel the need to tailgate someone. <cite>ContraPop posted [p:884583659] in C/D: you d...
