Letter: Relishing life key to better driving

Tuesday, Aug. 12, 2003 | 8:42 a.m.

I'm almost 70 and I drive better than most younger drivers in this valley.

When I come to a stoplight, I stop. When I change lanes I use my directional signals. I don't have a cell phone stuck to my head while I'm driving. I'm not eating or admiring myself in my car mirror while I'm driving in heavy traffic. I don't pull up to the car in front of me at a light so close that a speck of dust would have a hard time fitting between the two bumpers. I don't drive drunk to kill innocent people. I don't use illegal drugs while driving.

I'm a better driver than most of you out there because I relish life.
