> I also don't get why people like to slow down to look at accident scenes.

As it happens, I live within walking distance of the Pittsburgh
Vintage Grand Prix that takes place every summer. If I have nothing
better to do, I'll wander down and watch. It's some nice old cars
racing genteelly.

Some years back, I was watching the practice/time trials on Saturday
when one car had a problem and hit some hay bales. It was nothing
major, but I found that my heart was racing. So I conclude that
rubbernecking is a natural response, perhaps a primal reaction to
seeing another member of the tribe in danger.
