Part of my joy in driving cross country is the 'language' of the road.

:)

Signaling like that is appreciated. At least it would be on my end if I were still driving.

Good to see that you have grown on this point. That thread from a few years back was comedy gold, so much so that whenever I am in a position to pass someone on the right, I glance over to see what you look like... :)

The argument I present to her is I'm only a dick if I'm already technically speeding and yet you still feel the need to get right up on my ass. I'll get over if the right lanes are clear, but I'm not getting over just to get myself stuck behind slower moving traffic because you feel the need to speed more than I currently already am. Yet my girlfriend still calls me a dick.

I agree with you. If you get over they always seem to block job you.

Pro-Tip....if anyone is ever passed by a TMC truck, you're not doing the speed limit. lol

and being a left lane Dick is now a ticketable offense in Kentucky and Indiana... Ohio needs to adopt this, especially northern Ohio, they are the worst!!!

Sideburn 11-13-2015 04:57 PM

Well yeah. One thing that pisses me off is when I'm passing, and a guy is right on my ass, so I interpret that to mean he'll fly by me if I move. I see a gap coming up thats reasonably large, and should be plenty if he really goes. I ease on over and see that he didn't punch it, he's just leisurely making progress but I'll get stuck. **** that guy, I speed up and get right back in front of him, I made room and you didn't go.

I live in Ohio. As far as I know it is a ticketed offense.

my wife is.
I told her it is because she is from Minnesota and that is how they vote.

I drive more now.

THAT is what's missing from most drivers. The morons that drive the speed limit, or less in the fast lane, totally oblivious to what the **** is going around them, with people next to them doing the same thing. Rolling road blocks.

It would be awesome if someone had a drone and flew over a congested HWY and filmed the stupid shit people did while driving then have the local news play a loop with this video, include the drivers name and address, play by play of how their piss poor driving is impacting everyone around them, especially at rush hour.

When you sit in traffic for an extra hour and a half 3 times a week because some dumbass was on the phone, not paying attention and crashes in to some one else, show the replay. Then charge the MFer for the thousands of people stuck in the tidal wave of traffic behind them, lost hourly rates as well as burned fuel and wear and tear on their vehicles.

I hate stupid drivers, but drive a company truck and cant respond to the stupid shit I see everyday from incompetent drivers. I seriously cant wait until we have self driving cars. That bumper to bumper 1.5 hour 32 mile commute home everynight will be down to 30 minutes. I love driving but will gladly give it up if it saves me 5 - 10 hours a week in commuting.

This thread could bullet point a thousand examples of piss poor driving ability, but know this, if people are always getting pissed off at you on the road, your the problem and should take a good hard look at how YOU are driving.

This is part of the problem. People think they can go as fast as they want in this lane. It is a passing lane not a racing lane. I have no issues with people going over the speed limit but when someone is riding peoples asses going to fast for the vehicle they are in that is when there is a problem. 80 in a porsche is not the same as 80 in a truck with an 6 inch lift and 35 inch tires.
