Did you miss all the parts about blind curves and hills on really treacherous mountain roads?

Thought so.

No, I didn't miss it. If you're barreling around blind curves so fast that you can't slow down or stop if there's slower traffic or any other obstruction in the road in front of you, you're a dangerous driver. To quote from the Texas Driver's Handbook, "Slow down and increase the following distance when your vision is limited. You should always be able to stop within the distance you can see ahead of your car."

Seriously, this is basic stuff.
