There are only a handful of situations in which it is acceptable to rubberneck. These include seeing any or all of the following:

• A double-decker bus of tourists from a nudist colony is on fire and careening down the freeway.
• Aliens. Or their ship.
• A Pontiac Aztec. Anyone who drives one of those cars deserves to be glared at.

Otherwise, go to a junk yard if you want to stare at wrecked cars. Or rent an action movie. You can pause it and gawk at the destruction in amazing high definition which looks just like you’re really staring at an accident, except you aren’t backing up traffic for miles.

General rule: just keep driving. Mkay?
