“I love a broad margin in my life.”

—Henry David Thoreau, in Walden

What kind of driver are you?

To what degree do you see the speed limit as only a guideline for your consideration? What is your opinion of tailgating and passing on the right?

I am usually a very cautious driver, using the Waze app for directions, to confirm the speed limit, point out delays, accidents, police, and of course, watch for other folks in too much of a hurry.

I prefer to think of my driving efforts as similar to an autonomous vehicle constantly checking my surroundings to maintain the greatest possible safety margin to protect myself and others.

EXERCISE:

Where in your life do you have or need a greater margin?

What will be the benefit to you and others when you give this broader margin a road test?
