Another driving pet peeve......

Reb why are you even arguing? I made a comment jesus christ. Shut the hell up. Seriously.

Ben, trust me I am never going too slow to be in the left lane.

You say they're in the minority, but they're still pretty frequent...I do a decent amount of driving.

damn if that wasnt strike worthy im now averse as to what is

Jmac, seems like alot of people love you lately.

Mack, when am I a tool? Especially going out of my way to be one?

While I don't necessarily condone honking except in the most of extreme circumstances, perhaps, if you were paying attention, you would have seen the faster driver coming up and gotten in the right hand lane as you should. If it's clear and you aren't passing anyone, why are you in the left hand lane anyways? Left hand lane = passing.

A 2 lane and you may have a point on the passing slow thing. I was reading this thread to my wife......she remembered you from your "hunting is useless" gem, and after this... She's not a fan. Like I care what your wife thinks of me? Hunting is useless. Also, what gem? I am sorry I think the left lane is dangerous and wouldn't drive there with a child. People are nuts on the highway. Hell if I had a kid I would avoid highway at all costs. Way too many close calls(not from my driving either) Ben, you're probably right though. Maybe it is the safest. I would think the middle lane is. Definitely not the right lane.

I live in Connecticut.

So wait, whats wrong with the above?

Reb then argued with me, said I called him a bad parent and told me his wife thinks some crap I don't care about. None of that is being a tool...

I wouldn't blame it all on jmac being a tool. A good portion of it is related to jmac being an idiot.
