There's some distinction between 'using the internet' and 'social media' (which is a somewhat nebulous term, possibly). Could I go 3 days without 'social media' or 'socializing online'? Yeah - i

Something that's helped me to reduce speeding is real time GPS/map info. I don't drive half as much as I did a few years ago, and much of that was 'around town' (a... 30-40 mile radius for various events). There&#
