If you drive a smart car and have a bad case of gas be sure you drop a window to relieve pressure... :D

Do you mean like when I hold my puppy in my lap and she chews on a bone and I smell "Puppy Fumes"? If I do this in my Lincoln Town Car will I get better mileage or just more gas?

Amen. Each time I drive I wonder if all the common sense challenged drivers will make it home in one piece. Like the three drivers who made illegal left turns in front of a school bus full of kids doing about 30 miles per hour. I had no idea a bus could stop that fast. I pray none of the kids were injured.

Yes, going back to the basics is the key. Smart drivers first, then followed by the smart cars.
