Dear fellow commuters, I'd like to talk to you about driving to and from work. It's something that unites us all, whether we're travelling from several hours away from work (like me) or from 10 minutes around the corner (like most of you). I've let things go for some time now, but I feel that I now need to address some serious concerns I have about your habits when you're behind the wheel of your vehicle. Firstly, leaving a bit of space between cars is a good thing. If I've learnt one thing on my commutes in and out of Sydney over the last year, it's that you guys abhor a vacuum - there's no space too small that it can't be occupied by another vehicle. I like to leave a bit of room between myself and the car in front of me because they do things like braking and I like to have enough time to react to that braking without ramming them into a concrete sidewall at 100kph. But every time I hang back a bit and leave myself enough time to brake, one of you guys pulls into the space and squats there. Blog entry continues here - http://thatstheplan.com.
