Default Things NOT to do at high speed.

I've added another fairly common sense one to my list today but common sense isn't my forte.

*) Do NOT adjust your windshield to try and catch up with Mr Ninja.
(the change in profile and sudden faceful of wind is not condusive to good handling).

DON'T allow your nose to become itchy. You can't do anything about it and your eyes will start watering.
