Reply to comment by Crazyhunt in LPT - If theres a sudden roadblock on a highway or a traffic jam and you have to stop, always keep a lot of distance in front of you so you dont get pancaked if someone behind you doesn't notice the block. by zapdado2002

Got a car with auto-cruise control and my outlook changed immediately. I keep the following distance maxed out and the speed set to 75. No one cuts me off… they’re just passing. They’re comfortable following closer, more power to them, they can do that. It’s not personal, and leaving 5 minutes sooner is a fair trade off for 30 minutes of peace. I just put on some good music, sip my coffee, and watch the sun rise.

Edit: if it’s stop and go, get behind a semi, no one is going to cut you off to follow a truck.
