I agree people should drive at their comfort level, the point being made is if you want to drive slow when a passing lane comes up don't speed up so nobody can get by. I see it all the time these people are not just wanting to drive slow when they more than double their speed at a passing lane I shouldn't have to live with it some people are just stupid

As for me i do the same thing and i hate myself for it because i know how frustrating it is. But when i realize what i'm doing i try to slow back down to the speed i was at, i speed up to make sure my four banger gets up the hill lol and i didn't realize how slow i was going till i was getting passed, but i do try to slow down when i realize i've hit the accelerator. Sorry to be one of the pain in the butts. -
I have a now problem with people. Bad weather here today and noticed a bunch of ####### who had the brains to fly past the big trucks (their were several running along at a reasonable speed) but when they came up to a snow plow working the left lane they wouldn' go by him (there was plenty of room) so now we have a mile long line going 1/2 speed all bottled up, and as much as I hate people I was a pro. and backed off even slower to leave room for the wreck that I was sure would happen. Anywho made it home over an hr to go 30mi. Why are people so stupid?

If it helps any, I have always been a 20 mph over kind of guy. I don't recommend it but I have a high priced lawyer as a personal friend so tickets always go away.

Here in northern Ontario we don't have passing lanes on the 2 lane highways, they're racing lanes!!

I'm sure they hate you too.
Oh now don't get your scooby-doo under-roos in a knot, I was just joking. You gave the perfect set up and I couldn't resist.
You remind me of a shirt my oldest brother use to have; it said: I'm not prejudiced, I hate everyone. -
Scooby-Doo under-roos


! I'm still laughing! As far as the shirt, I live that phrase: I'm NOT predjudiced. I'm not. I just hate people.

Instead of complaining, do something about it. Find the nearest mountain and drive off the edge of it.
Viola! No more dealing with stupid people. -
If I'm reading this right this is the one thing that drives me crazy. I used to drive in the desert alot and I would get behind a motorhome doing 50mph. Then when a passing lane came up they'd speed up to 65mph where I couldn't pass them. The only logical reason I could come up with is they feel safer with the other lane next to them so they would speed up.
