    I think thats so rude and not to mention technically against the law. Now I can’t drive exactly the speed limit all the time – who can? But I’m always within two or three mph of the limit. I dislike it when they crowd your bumper then speed pass you at the first chance. : crybaby2.gif

    Well the best part of that is when you get to a stoplight and look who’s there – they are, wow that speeding really helped them out a lot!

    I was trailing a cyclist today and had some arsehole trying to overtake me while I was waiting to overtake the cyclist. I didn’t spot him until I began to overtake the cyclist, and he had to slam on his brakes. I was doing a GPS-verified 30MPH, which was the speed limit. We were going by a school, too…

    So, Yoda, I know exactly what you mean. It’s stupid.

    I don’t mind being passed, but I hate it when the person gets in front of me and then slows down. Are they just playing a silly game?

    I had a nut this morning do it again. Only this time he was a car BEHIND me! He actually was passing TWO cars to get ahead. AND he had to be quick to avoid an oncoming car. It wasn’t that close but it was coming up pretty fast. I mean doing that just is stupid. I like driving but I don’t like nerve wrecking driving. Follow the rules of the road and everyone will get along just fine.

    I got passed on a freeway on ramp once. w00t.gif It just amazes me how some people drive. Today I was in the right lane on I94 going 60 in a 55 zone and a guy came up behind me, passed me, pulled back in front of me and took the exit. He couldn’t stay behind me for one second and then exit. dontknow.gif Some times you just have to shake your head and say “What’s wrong with these people?” icon_scratch.gif

    I’m not sure which was in play that day, but it did give me something to remember. I guess he had IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO and had no time to waste doing them. icon_cheesygrin.gif
