Yeah, but they've always taught "proper following distance".
It ain't rocket surgery, but seems to be beyond the comprehension of many drivers.
Yes, even the drivers of pre-emission "large cars" who are still running on paper.
This is not a knock on anyone in this forum, but I see such drivers every day in the rear view mirror of my 68 mph governed truck, inches off my rear bumper even when I'm in the right lane.
Just sayin'.
I don't know what the solution is, and it's very true that "common sense isn't so common anymore". -
There’s talk of canceling Halloween!!!!
We cannot let this happen!
It’s there for good little ghouls to scare the bad ghouls and undead back to stay in their graves!!
Next we will have undead walking around... and if you thought corona was bad...
History Lesson.
On Halloween , when it was believed that ghosts came back to the earthly world, people thought that they would encounter ghosts if they left their homes. To avoid being recognized by these ghosts, people would wear masks when they left their homes after dark so that the ghosts would mistake them for fellow spirits.
Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain(pronounced sow-in). The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago, mostly in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France, celebrated their new year on November 1.
This day marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.
In addition to causing trouble and damaging crops, Celts thought that the presence of the otherworldly spirits made it easier for the Druids, or Celtic priests, to make predictions about the future. For a people entirely dependent on the volatile natural world, these prophecies were an important source of comfort during the long, dark winter.
To commemorate the event, Druids built huge sacred bonfires, where the people gathered to burn crops and animals as sacrifices to the Celtic deities. During the celebration, the Celts wore costumes, typically consisting of animal heads and skins, and attempted to tell each other’s fortunes.
When the celebration was over, they re-lit their hearth fires, which they had extinguished earlier that evening, from the sacred bonfire to help protect them during the coming winter.
