Synopsis
Accidents, as in "chance happenings" (according to Webster), are hardly chance at all. Accidents don't just happen. They are caused; caused by indifference and by incompetence. A meteor hitting your car is an accident, everything else is driver error. If you don't believe that, this book will convince you.
Racing drivers use their eyes, hands and feet in ways which can benefit us on the highway. This book shows how these skills can be used to improve everyday driving. It addresses the thought processes involved and suggests ways to improve quick thinking, rapid decision making and anticipation to help avoid accidents. State driver licensing tests do nothing to show the applicant's ability to minimize judgement errors. This book shows exactly what they are and how to correct them.
Whether you are expert or novice at driving, you will learn equally from this book. It will make you a better driver.

About the Author
A lifelong automobile enthusiast, coach and racer, Al Karasa writes extensively about automotive history, sports cars and high performance driving. His interest in motorsports began with British roadsters. Among many others, he owned and raced the much admired Spitfire and an AC Bristol - the car from which the original Cobra was developed. He prepares and maintains his own cars and holds twelve engineering patents for innovative mechanical designs secured during his tenure in that field.
An avid scholar of driving skills and active follower of motorsports here and abroad, he also participates in high performance driving education and coaching.
Sherridan's Rain, his first novel published in 1995, is about the Golden Age of sports car racing.
His advanced driving skills column, Racing Techniques for Everyday Driving, appeared regularly in MCA Magazine and he is the Feature Editor emeritus of Miata Magazine, America's leading marque club publication.
