To me, this is one of the biggest differences between people that know how
to drive and people that don't.  I'm constantly amazed at the number of
people that continue to drive five or ten over the limit is atrocious
conditions.  Usually, of course, those are the same people that think
driving 80 mph in good conditions is unsafe.  :-)

(I have no opinion on the "autoxers are less likely to wreck than regular
folks".  First, a whole bunch of autoxers are "regular folks", second I
think many do tend to push the limits a bit more.  It'd definately be
interesting to see a stats analysis.  I bet you see a lower incident rate,
but a higher damage amount per incident.  When you know what you're doing,
you don't wreck unless things go _really_ wrong... :-)
