It's terrible isn't it?

I have crossed this great land 40 times? by car in the old days!

I learned to stay the hell out of the Rockies. I mean I almost died five different times I can remember. I mean you take a curve and where it was a bright sunny day it was night!

I stayed in the right lane, I attempted to be agreeable.

There are nuts out there. There are nuts out there will real power.

And Bill Burr informs us of the potential problems with our id but he reminds us that we had better stick with our superego. hahahahahaha

Is this what all the liberals

HA! I think about this routine a lot of time when I'm driving. Maybe I'm so persnickety about the laws of the road, but if I start to let my thoughts drift toward doing what I want to do....

Slower traffic should keep to

Slower traffic should keep to the right, not the left. I think a big part of the problem with our roads is that too may people don't even know the laws of the road that they think others aren't following correctly.

No one on this blog is advocating the behavior you're attributing to them, by the way. We're advocating following the law, not being an asshat. If I'm following the law and keeping to the right (not the left), what right do you have to get mad at me?

I thought you were about doing the right thing, and not just the expedient thing.

If it bumper to bumper

In reply to Generally speaking, a car

If it bumper to bumper traffic in all three lanes, then the situation doesn't warrant allowing some to exceed the speed limit. If there are few cars, then slower traffic goes to the right and those on the left side can speed up as the situation allows

The only reason it's bumper to bumper in three lanes as opposed to bumper to bumper in two; ....is because the ass hats aren't satisfied with taking up two lanes, they need three in order to screw everyone else.

A test

The person behind you, is flashing his lights, he's tailgating you, he's flipping you off .

What ever should you do?

Remember the slogan "slower traffic keep to the left or do you say to yourself; their is no sign saying SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP TO THE LEFT, so its my right to be an asshat?

Never mind that citizens are not allowed the Right to turn on the sirens for perceived emergencies.

The dreaded emergency call; moms fallen or had a stroke and shes critical. You'd sure like to get to the hospital to comfort her ,before her expiration; except a group of asshat drivers want to take up all three lanes, and allow no one to pass.

Thinking to themselves "I may be slow, but I'm ahead of you" They don't need to flip others off, they just know, they dont need to tell you to F off they'll just F with you, by driving slower.

"Sorry to hear about your mom; but the law is the law and we'll make sure you observe it"

I motorcycled across Texas in

In reply to That no speed limit law is no

I motorcycled across Texas in the late '60s. The roadsigns read, "Any safe speed."

What a sensible state, I thought. Of course, you could also drive with an open six-pack. Don't try that on a bike, folks.

And they know how to use

And they know how to use them. The guns, not the vehicles.

Well don't drive I95 and

Well don't drive I95 and don't flip people off in Florida, they have guns in their vehicles.

You need a faster goddamn car.

However. Avoid the Facel-Vega.
