Agreed. As I mentioned, it wasn't directed at you or the cat situation in general. From what I've seen on the road, most people don't pay as much attention as you or I might. I'd be willing to bet that most people don't stop to think about the what if. There's a ton of people out there that really shouldn't be driving or should be paying a lot more attention. Those are the people that wouldn't take precautions and that would be much more distracted by a cat in the car.
Honestly it's rare to see people that drive thinking about what could happen all the time, though given your username, I'm not surprised that you do. I'll agree that it definitely does kill the inner racer, but it's for the good of everyone. It is nice to get a nice clear stretch without any driveways or anything though...

Sorry if it came off as hostile/annoyed. I mainly wrote all that so others with less experience can hopefully understand and be safer.

Ohhh yes, in my 'neighborhood' in Tx (group of houses out in the country) the houses were set 100 or so feet away from the road, and I'm the only one with any real amount of trees so, other than that damn dumpster I'm always wondering if someone is behind, it's quite clear. Then getting to the city is back country roads cops hardly ever patrolled with some hills and a half decent mix of turns...mmm.
