I now drive exactly at the speed limit, causing traffic to pile up behind me as everyone else wants to speed.
😈
You can be an amazing and cool person who also drives the speed limit.
In fact, only people who drive the limit are amazing and cool.
I won’t even fault you if you’re going 5 to 9 miles over, as long as you leave enough room between you and the car in front of you.
People who tailgate are neither amazing nor cool.
I still drive the speedlimit on GPS measurement (and when available those speed measure points next to roads), but if some asshole is going like 20 over then I slow down to 1 km/h below on the dash.
I just put the speed limiter to the limit +2 km/h, why +2? Because radars won’t pick that small difference and drivers usually when trying to go to the limit they go a liitle bit faster and it’s annoying to have people pass you all the time.
I drive really slow in the ultra fast lane
While people behind me are going insane
Edited to say: I guess the lyrics of Denis Leary’s “Asshole” have been lost to the ages.
That is more than just evil.
It’s dangerous too
I use public toilets, and I piss on the seat
I walk around in the Summer time, saying, “How about this heat?”
Got me thinking about Knorkator’s “Böse”
:(

I know some that claimed to like that song and did exactly what the song sung about.
Rhythmically it also works for Offspring’s Bad Habit
It IS satisfying sometimes watching some asshole try to weave in and out of lanes to get ahead in your mirror, only to just barely miss being able to cut you off and have to get in behind you.
You are truly evil.
Surprised this is getting as many upvotes as it is. It totally depends on context. I’ve seen posted 35 mph speed limits on 6 lane roads where every is going minimum 50mph, even with cops in the flow of traffic. I’ve also been on 2 lane roads (e.g opposing traffic is directly next to you) and the posted speed limit is 55mph.
If you’re doing the speed limit in the second one, well done. If you’re going 15-25mph below the flow of traffic in the middle or fast lane, because of a posted speed limit, that’s a problem.
If you’re going 15-25mph below the flow of traffic in the middle or fast lane, because of a posted speed limit, that’s a problem.
No actually
If it’s a six lane, then me going 35 has no effect on all the speeders. dwi
I’ve seen people get pulled over for doing 60 in a 65 on a highway where everyone is doing 70-85, because it’s dangerously slow with only 2 lanes.
And it’s 6 lanes because of how much traffic there is, forcing people to weave around someone going 10-30mph below the flow of traffic is dangerous.

Well yeah, they were going below the speed limit. That creates dangerous conditions.
If they were doing 65 in a 65 and everyone else was doing 85, the cops can’t do shit because they’re literally following the law.
And if my going the speed limit is “dangerous”, then it’s the regulations that are wrong. Not me. They should change the speed limit if it’s a problem for me to follow the posted laws. I’m not the one causing danger, the law is.

Do you think speed limits are an exact number that has to be matched at all times?
Legally that’s literally what it is - a cop has the legal authority to pull you over for going 1 mph over the speed limit and give you a ticket for it. Obviously in the real world the enforcement of speed limits is way different from the actual letter of the law, but it’s really no trouble for me to just match my speed to the speed limit. It’s not like speeding actually saves you that much time.
No, I’m pointing out how seem to think going below the limit is also a crime that cops can pull you over for.
They can ticket you for unsafe driving if you’re going significantly below the speed of traffic. And in my area there is actually a minimum speed on the freeways.
But the way you worded it made it sound like you think you have to go exactly the speed limit at all times.
Growing old is inevitable, becoming a crochety asshole is entirely optional.
What you mean with “becoming”?
I’ve always been a crochety asshole, it’s just that growing old I’m accepting Squidward was right all along
I flat out refuse to end up as a “get off my damn lawn!” type of adult. The natural instinct is there tho. Not gonna lie.
You just get tired of the bullshit as you get older. I’m not anywhere near get off my lawn, but I can see why people get like that.
A buddy and I talk about this a lot. Say hi to the people you see. Wave to your neighbors. Stay connected. It makes life better.
That’s it, I’m gettin me mallet.
You’re spoiling my dreams man
It’s all good. As an old man now I can confirm we stay cool, it’s the kids that aren’t with it.
Solution: become deranged
