The message
from "Autolycus" contains these words:

An imperfect, inattentive, or foolish driver (obviously not a reader of
this group) suddenly realise you are stationary, in front of him and
100ft away when he starts braking. At 48 mile/h, he taps your back
bumper: at 55 mile/h, he's still doing 25 mile/h when he hits you.
Which is the more severe accident?

But at 55mph he would be less likely to be unaware of his surroundings.
Driving needs to be sufficiently stimulating to keep the driver alert
and concentrating on the job in hand, rather than the scenery, how he is
going to make his mother-in-laws death look like an accident or
whatever.


Haven't read all this, but this is the place for motoring law
