Bill, were most of these accidents "driver error" or were a significant portion the result of a Cobra being hit by the "other guy?" I ask this because it is my experience that people tend to know where I am and to stay from me in traffic, plus they tend to give me a wide berth at stoplights, etc. Would there be any truth to the statement that "Cobra crash protection should be analyzed, if at all, with an eye towards a greater likelihood that the driver will cause the accident, rather than the driver being the victim of someone else's carelessness?"
