It is the ability to sense or anticipate possible happenings ahead of your car before they occur. Skilled drivers learn to anticipate when and where a child may run into the street; when a car ahead may make an unsafe move; or when the road is likely to be blocked by any of a number of - occurrences. Al ways slow down, be prepared to stop when your sixth driving sense warns you. V.F.W. NEWS John B. Smith Tlje officers and members of V.F.W.
