Hard to condone blatantly illegal activity, even if we all do it sometimes. But the fact is there are limited circumstances in which the only significant risk is to the driver making the decision, and KRAM describes such a circumstance. This is America, and I still believe people should be free from having their individual choices curtailed by law o r public censure unless some greater good is served. Aside from the nebulous potential cost of pooled insurance risk, wreck debris removal, uncompensated health care, etc, I am not harmed in the least by what another person does on an empty road!
Our personal freedoms seem to diminish daily in the face of theoretical or possible good, or the postulated effects of categorically applying a singular situational decision across an entire populace in all situations. I guess the idea is to remove all thinking and all personal responsibility by never doing something that the whole collective group hasn't endorsed for all situations.

I say choose your moments Very Carefully, and if so inclined, let 'er rip.

The condescending holier-than-thou diatribe was to be expected, but is still disappointing, particularly given the sources as coming from valued forum contributors. I think the attidude is more bothersome than the viewpoint, which I agree with except for very limited circumstances.
