Didn't miss anything.  Any time I've made an error, my following
distance has allowed me to compensate.  It's also allowed me to
compensate for other drivers' errors.

What's the ratio of civilians stopped vs stopped and ticketed?  What's
the ratio when it's cops stopped?

You never told me what misdemeanors all my coworkers are committing.
Asides from that, it isn't my job to stop them.  Worse than that, if
it was my job to enforce rules and I broke them with immunity, I sure
wouldn't get a lot of respect.

Why not answer the question?  Is your family doctor a pathologist?
You "challenge" me to ask accident investigators what makes driving
dangerous, but you refuse to tell me if you follow the same logic in
your personal health.
