I disagree. Maybe I'm off topic, as I missed the original post, but I think
that defensive driving makes you stand out. Not too many people do it. My
brief explanation of defensive driving to people is that you have to think like
a quarterback making a run for the end. There's a lot of people trying to get
you and you have to be aware of where they are and plan where you're going to
go when they come for you.
