Swr#1: 01/18/00: the articles were very interesting and at the same time very true. I have noticed a growing popular trend in the way people think about driving, and that trend seems to revolve around the simple thought, "not my fault". it always screamed at an accident, and it seems to always be heard on someone's tongue, while doing something wrong. If we just take the time to relate to another's situation, maybe we can tap more into our own God-given stores of compassion and refrain from comments like "idiot drivers" or from using colorful metaphors to describe other drivers. I try to keep an open mind while driving and not to take things personally....because the other driver is not out to get me personally. Reaction: Here, I was focusing on the idea that many people reason to themselves that they are not at fault for anything on the road. They have the mentality and act like they are not responsible for anything on the road. I had a few responses that agreed with my stand. If we all think this way, then we will all feel this way towards others on the road.
