For Advanced Dummies
Make your selections in the Accept and Warn Fields. You will receive color feedback. Yellow means the same as at an intersection: You might get hit, or you may be safe. Red means you are fairly unsafe.

Click on the More button to see the settings of the prefs.js file that you influence. And you can monitor changes if Netscape is on.
