Or the “jogger” at the bottom of the hill running opposite of traffic in the middle of a lane wth opposite traffic oncoming on 55 and 1.5 seconds for me to slam on the breaks and sound the horn to get off the road because physics won’t allow my car to stop even though I am following the rules
being aware that at pre dawn morning work hours they aren’t visible on a 55mph hill side
Is “assured clear distance ahead” not a rule where you are?
No. Which is why I’m required to slow down. In case there’s something on the other side. Which I can’t see. And I need to be able to stop without hitting it.
