I drive a 1959 car every day, I look at it as if I was riding a motorcycle. I treat everything on the road, I drive defensibly like I did on a motorcycle and that is all I can do.

If you hit someone hard enough in one of these trucks where the hood comes back, you have OTHER problems big time that is a tiny one.

I don't now, it wouldn't be a bad idea, but I can't see that it would make that big of a difference.
