Offensive Driving

Thought you might find this interesting. I did not take this video but it is the way we had to drive in Iraq (at least in 2003-04) You never stopped for anything, keep moving at all costs. Bridges were the worst, we were always a target and we had the bullet holes to prove it. Something to keep in the back of your head if you find yourself in a bug out situation.
Also note: we had heavy duty bumpers and no seat belts. The last thing you wanted if you had to fight or bail out was a seat belt to contend with.

  1. I like it. The guy crossing at 2:11 almost got it, too. Tough life. Thanks for putting up with that crap and keeping us safe, Bubba.
