When a bus is coming from the opposite direction they might miss clipping off your sideview mirror by 3 inches. You have to pay so much attention to the driving that you miss the beauty of one of the most beautiful rides in the world, because if you take your eye off the road, you will plunge 1,000 feet onto rocks, or crash head on into another care. I agree, very confident drivers can do this, and I have, but it's not for everyone....{snip}...
