Default Bonanza crash caught on video

I had a couple of minor accidents as a teen - but they were caused by
distractions, not by speed.- Hide quoted text -


That's the other lesson I've tried to impart to my son. A tiny,
insignificant distraction can have horrendous results, when you're
hurtling down the road in a steel box.

Some of the worst accidents I've witnessed were caused by the driver
simply looking at his passenger while talking to them. (One of my pet
peeves, BTW. I had a coworker who simply HAD to look at you while
talking, even while driving in Chicago traffic. I finally refused to
ride with him.)
