Yep. Thats how I drive.. More interesting though, is that over the years, my gas peddle has gotten me out of more potential accidents then my brake peddle.. go figure.



It irks me to see people use the brake pedal as their default accident avoidance regimen. Somehow, I instinctively developed a habit of quickly checking my perimeter for other cars, then steering around obstructions. I try to only brake when I am boxed in with no other choice.



Its not 'go figure'... its just good driving. Anyone i've ever driven with except my brother always got antsy because ov my reluctance to jam the brakes at any excuse. If i'm in a pinch i'll just go around, or through, and leave the idiots that cause the mess to figure out what just happened. It absolutely staggers my tech friends at how long the brakes last in my cars...
