There is even a poem, dating from the early 1900's:
      Here lies the body Of William Jay,
     Who died maintaining His right of way.
     He was in the right As he sped along,
     But he's just as dead As if he'd been wrong.

Exactly.  When I see turf-marking indications on a car, I go extra carefully, and generally give them a little extra space.
