I've said the same thing for years, but every time I bring it up here I get 10 people telling me they do it all the time and it's as safe as driving around empty, they have no problems, it stops fine and on and on and on. Good for them I guess but if I tried it, I'd have an accident because something failed and I'd be sued for everything I own then sent to jail!
