Unless the one in front is actively releasing a smokescreen...

Even then... one of the more wonky things in the US is that the rear driver is ALWAYS at fault, unless it's a "no fault" state

I do believe one is suppose to keep a distance of 100m-150m or at least a three seconds gap with the vehicle in front of you

1 Mississippi
2 Mississippi
3 Mississippi

or a safe braking distance

That's not entirely true. There is just a high burden to prove fault in the leading driver.

"If he’s into the environment, if he’s into this or that, we’re not. I hear a lot of that."

Obama needs to say something like this then.
"I greatly enjoy not plugging my genitals into power sockets. In fact my favourite activity is to gather a bunch of my friends, stay sober, and bet each other how long we won't do that."

In Russia lots of drivers have dashboard cams because there are so many rear-ending scam accidents.

"The feeling around here is that everyone who drives a small car is a liberal," a roller named Ryan told Vocativ. "I rolled coal on a Prius once just because they were tailing me."


Hahahahahahahaha!

That logic is just silly though. I prefer a smaller car for a daily driver because feth you gas prices! I'm definitely not a liberal.

Guess it's the opposite of electric/hybrid car smugness as depicted in South Park.

This commentary makes me laugh.

NSFW

It is not about logic, it is about the emotion of preserving a non-liberal personal identity.

..... but.... but.... Protest!

A particularly Liberal friend of mine (American Liberal, not European Commie Liberal) posted a video from Horsepower TV, where theyve apparently seen this Coal Rolling as such an issue, and such a big increase that they've put it on their national cable TV shows, random segments and blurbs saying that this is already illegal at the federal level
