...consultant is not always the best idea, since they have a strange propensity for fender-benders. Not only do consultant drivers want to get where they're going as fast as possible, says Wang, but "they are life-long overachievers and they just want to win." Tom agrees. "I'm not really satisfied unless I'm the first one in line for the light--I mean, look how far back we are!" We were five cars back from the intersection...
