It is getting to where too many people are in too big a hurry! I am not a slow driver, I go 5-10 MPH over speed limits on average. But that is not enough for a good many folks. I get tailgated constanly lately, and people take stupid risks to get past me sometimes too. Don't thnese people realize what is going to happen to the price of their car insurance if caught going as fast as they are going? I guess they have so much money that they are not concered with that...good for them!

Its best just to get out of their way before something crazy happens.

I agree with both of you 100%. I never forgot one time when I saw someone going 90 being tailgated. And I live in Madison. I wouldn't survive in a bigger city. Plus now there's all this snow. It's crazy. I thought when gas was $4.00 a gallon people would slow down, but not.

I am all for memebag's solution--wire everyone's bumpers to explode upon impact. That will teach us.

Speeders and tailgaters are symptoms of what's wrong with the country. Bigger, better, faster, gimme, gimme, gimme, mine, mine, mine.

Everybody should slow the frack down and chill, baby.

My personal favorite is the people in big SUV's that drive fast and think that they can stop on a dime in ice and snow because of their beloved 4-wheel drive. You usually end up seeing those guys on their side up the road a bit.

Yep. I see SUVs trying to show off and tailgate far more in snow just to prove something. Tailgaters in the snow and ice kill me. People have different vehicles, mine has front wheel drive but it also has slick tires with little grip. So it's harder to start and stop and hopefully someone isn't on my tail too much when I want to stop.

I have 4 wheel drive but I use my head while driving. I don't do that stupid crap. I do like to see people who think their invincible wiped out in the median though.

And people need to ferkin lighten up too. This a-hole on a chopper slowed down next to me and gave me the "Use your eyes" sign. I changed lanes but I saw him, 5-6 cars back still. Not a close call or anything. I gave him the sign right back. He yelled something and started to take off and I laid on the horn. He almost locked it up and laid it down he was so pissed. Rolls back up next to me yelling "You better fuckin watch!" I just yelled back "YOU better fucking watch!" We went back and forth a few times and I said "It's your ass on the line, who do you trust? He stormed off and I waved... :peace:

They are actually instituting a law here (at least thinking about it) that if you do the speed limit in the left late, you are getting the ticket.

So let me get this straight.. You'll be getting a ticket for obeying the law? I wonder how long before some lawyer gets a ticket and tears that one down in court.

Basically, yes. If the speed limit on the freeway is 75, you're doing 75 in the left lane, and you have more than 5 cars backed up behind you, you're getting the ticket. It's mostly targeted toward truckers and RV drivers but it applies to everybody.

And if you go 80 you get a speeding ticket?
