that is a good question. The answer is you have to be wary of others around you. Full concentration. My old girl friend was always doing this or that in her car. And even on good roads she constantly got into accidents. I myself have always driven defensively knowing that there are idiots all around me. And haven't had an accident to date. 35 years of drivng. Knock on wood. Being careful is the most important thing by far if you ask me. Abs probably does help some. But not nearly as much as being careful.

But, since I've had my little yaris now for two weeks I've almost got into accidents from some really very bad driving habits by other motorists. I haven't had any real problems with other drivers for many years drivng my 98 toyota and 93 nissan pick up trucks. But now having the yaris i've had to use some good driving to stay out of accidents. I'm thinking of getting a flag or something for the car just so folks know I'm there. Or stickers that say I'm "nra" and or "marine corps vet" or this car insured by "smith and wesson."
