[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 327269, member: 4653"] Chan, I plan on teaching my daughter the 5 seeing habits when Its time for her to learn to drive. She's only 12 now, but I plan on using everything thing I've learned at UPS about defensive driving to make her a safe driver. I try it now with my girlfriend but it just irritates her. She is guilty of not leaving enough following distance on a consistent basis enough to make me nervous about it. When I point it out, she gets mad and tells me to drive. My response is always nice and I'm always constructive when I criticize her. I explain to her what following too closely can do(did you see the pictures of the car that ended up beneath one of our trailers recently?) and that we are not going to go any faster than the car in front of us so we might as well just hang back 6-8 seconds when we're on the highway. I have since stopped because it only leads to an argument and I now do all the driving:whiteflag:. [/QUOTE]
