A lot of driving comes from habit. Things like covering your brake pedal, checking blind spots, even (especially) emergency maneuvers -- they're things you need to do reflexively, and not have to think about.

I stay, because I don't want to get into the habit of thinking that running a red light is safe under any circumstances. My life is not so hectic that I can't spare the 90 seconds.
