I find this especially true since I tend to tow quite often. People need to realize that everyone behind them may not have the same stopping ability as they do, so be sure to check your rear-view mirror before smoking the tires at a yellow light.

Asinine. If you have an irregular stopping distance in the vehicle you're driving, you need to adjust accordingly and NOT EXPECT everyone around you to realize your deficiency.
Can I get a dose of personal accountability for my country please? Thanks.

You obviously don't drive in the city often. When was the last time you left a huge space in front of your vehicle and didn't have some retard swoop in front of you? I can try to leave all the space in the world in front of me, but when you get to an intersection no space is left unfilled.

I live in the inner-city of Portland, OR.

sorry to herar that Jackattak... LOL
I'm in the REAL inner city of NYC - dammit I'd rather have a stalling engine than bad brakes.

Yar, I certainly understand the problems maintaining a safe following distance, but are you saying that your tow vehicle has such bad brakes that you would have to run the red because you can't stop fast enough? Perhaps a slower driving speed is in order?
