Yep, Bill, just like riding a motorcycle -- if you don't want to be an
idiot, expect that the other guy is one.

Hello,
Ok, so I admit I'm most likely a Wack Job, but..
If I were really concerned about safety, (forget that MG-SAFETY
FAST crap) I wouldn't put one foot in a Spridget to begin with.
A Roll bar is like a Band-Aid for a severed limb. Ya, it'll
help a little, yeah, it makes ya feel better, but basically my
belief is "If you crash, you DIE" .. ...
I drive defensively. I always assume the guy is going to run
the red light, the stop sign, will make the left turn with
signalling, that I am invisible on the road and the idiot WILL
pull out of the driveway, WHATEVER. I CAN control what I do
with the car, but not the other drivers on the road. So I
assume they will F*&K up. ... I wouldn't even have seat belts
if the law didn't require it.
If you want to be SAFE when you drive, get something modern,
with air bags. Make sure it weighs a couple of tons or more.
Put in a 4 point seat belt. Wear a Helmet.
My 2"
