Default Re: How to be safe driving your Model A

Just now a semi truck ran the red light as I was turning left. He was going 55 mph. I was driving my modern pickup and had my left foot posed above the brake pedal. I was able to stop in time to keep from getting hit. Scary. This is the first time I have seen a semi truck run a red light. Usually the professional drivers are better than that.
