Have you practiced getting a family of four out of the car while it is

If you are not prepared for dealing with that, you are stupid. Just
ask Harry K., DerbyDad, or DPD.

Correct, while it is not practical to practice, it is very possible to think
about what to do. How to open a door or window, equalizing pressure, the air
bubble that will remain, using a cell phone, etc. Yes, it is stupid not to
think about it.


Thinking about it might be helpful if you think the right thoughts and
the exact same thing happens in reality that happens in your dream.

Just because actual practice isn't practical, doesn't mean you are
excused from doing it.

Slamming into a concrete bridge abutment isn't practical either, but
people still do it.
