Which is fine til you consider that a man who drives too close to the mountainside can be just as dangerous as the one driving too close to the cliff.

And no doubt also helps to create road rage in those driving behind him or her because of their tendency to drive under the speed limit thus slowing ALL the cars behind them to a crawl.
