No, just tips I picked up going WAY back...HS Driver's Ed, Popular Science articles in the 60s when I was a teen (they had really excellent practical articles on staying alive on the roads), talking to pilot friends, my own daughter's pilot training when she was working on her license, my uncle who was a WW II bomber pilot and later gave me my first airplane flight when I was about 12.

I just looked up Smith Training and found a summary at Penhall:
THE 5 KEYS TO SPACE CUSHION DRIVING
Key 1: Aim High In Steering
Key 2: Get The Big Picture
Key 3: Keep Your Eyes Moving
Key 4: Leave Yourself an Out
Key 5: Make sure They See You

That's an excellent list. I was always taught to know everything around you at any second and know exactly where you will head when trouble arises (Key #4).

I’ve been learning a lot from Dog Whisperer. The most intriguing and challenging thing I’ve seen from him is to have a vision of what I want to happen before I enter a room with people. Leader of the pack.

In driving I used what I learned from playing touch football. Keeping people out of my bubble! Being aware of where everyone was and knowing where I wanted to go. Visual learner, too, so that helped. I bet oral learners depend on their hearing a lot.
