I've gotten some nasty looks while in the right lane doing 70 in a 65. Bitch, I'm driving a jeep wrangler, its literally a box with wheels. I deserve an award for getting it up to 70 in the first place.

[–]welding-_-guru 9ポイント10ポイント  (1子コメント)

Hey, as long as you're in the right lane you're fine. You could be doing 40 in the right lane and you're still better than the assholes who do 70 in the left lane with no one to their right and me behind them.

      Seattle checking in. I got stuck behind an Asian woman on my way home today. I was pretty mad about going down my favorite road at 30 in a 45mph zone. I figured "ok, it's pretty scenic on this road, must be some tourists taking pics, I just gotta get to my neighborhood" ...nope, she lives down the street from me, so I had to follow her through my neighborhood at a whopping 8 miles per hour, stopping at yield signs, and taking turns at 3 mph.

      This is after sitting in traffic on I-5 and I'm hypoglycemic so I get irritable if I haven't eaten in an hour, this bitch almost pushed me over the edge.

      [–]seattleite23 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

        Sure it can. But they need to fit a certain criteria: Wearing a hat, have glasses, be on their phone, be middle aged or older, or just straight up look like an asshole.

        It's always one or more of those things.

        [–]PandaLover42 6ポイント7ポイント  (2子コメント)

        Actually, for me, it's almost always a middle-aged white guy, often in a medium-luxury-level car, like a lexus, bmw, or acura.

            Black women: Fast and fail to use turn signal, tend to tailgate.

            Black men: Fast, use turn signal but only when half way through their turn.

                      On the smaller freeways that really need passing lanes observed, it doesn't matter how fast you're going in the left lane. Under the speed limit, 15 mph over, doesn't matter. If you're not actively passing someone, don't be in that lane.

                            I think the unspoken thing is passing on the right. Almost no one has a problem with passing whoever they need to pass on the left.

                            As someone who usually goes 10 over in the left lane and still gets tailgated, I hate people that tailgate me. It is just asking to get into a bad accident because people can't calm the fuck down with driving. I don't want to get pulled over.

                            [–]dbx99 65ポイント66ポイント  (1子コメント)

                            If you're not on a freeway, the passing on the right thing is not relevant. People turn left, right... passing on the left isn't practical in city streets.

                                I can't tell if me getting mad at slow drivers is because of my anger problem or if it is a legitimate reason to be upset. So, I decide to drive slow and get other people's' reactions. They all get mad at me. Is that because everyone else has an anger problem, or is it ok to be mad at slow drivers?

                                It's fine to be a slow driver (or, at least, it should be). You want to ride 50 on the freeway, fine.

                                What isn't fine is driving in the left-hand lane while you're doing it. Or in any other way being unaware of people trying to get by you.

                                  I don't mind slow drivers. I do get pissed if two slow drivers decided to drive at the same speed on both lanes while block everyone else behind them.

                                  If i'm on the clock and I'm travelling to or from a work site (when I'm not late) you can bet your ass I'm driving exactly on the speed limit. I could give zero fucks how much you tailgate me, I will remain at the speed limit until I reach my destination. The real aggressive ones I usually smile and wave at to piss them off even more, half the time it's the idiots who are speeding like maniacs, not the people going the speed limit.

                                  I've been doing 10 over in the left lane approaching a left turn only to see middle aged women flipping me off for daring to, I don't know, drive on the road.

                                    I love when they make a big show of passing you only to end up at the same off ramp or ending up getting stuck behind someone slower and getting passed by you. I love to give toothy grins and either golf clapping or giving a thumbs up. People vastly over estimate how much time speeding saved them, and underestimate the extra risks they add (some people between lanes constantly trying to get pole position) just to get there a few seconds faster.

                                      Being angry at someone driving slower than you just means you are an asshole. Want to know why I'm driving on the speed limit? No? Too bad. I'm driving on the speed limit because I'm up early in the morning to drop my son off to school, and after that I'm enjoying the drive and crisp cool lake Michigan air. I have nowhere to be and it's not yet too hot out. I am basking in the sunlight and enjoying the days I have left. You? No, your still being an asshat and worried about the speeds others are driving.

                                      Funny cause that's pretty much what I figured, my job requires me to move from one place to another quickly, keep appointments, and sometimes things come up and I just need to get somewhere now. If it's a weekday I feel as though people need to understand that there's those of us out there who have shit to do and need to get where we're going as fast as we safely can. That's great if you don't have any affairs to attend to or errands to run at 1:30pm on a Wednesday but damnit I do!

                                      Agreed. The worst is when you're stuck behind someone on a one-lane road for the next 10 minutes and they're going 5 under the speed limit, and then your GPS says you're going to be 1 minute late for your meeting which you were previously going to be early for! Obviously a minute or two isn't a big deal for most people, but it can make the difference in some client relationships. And we don't all have the luxury of just leaving earlier (in my case I often have 6-8 meetings in a day, it's hard to keep that schedule 100% spaced out all the time).

                                      Also, to those balking at the notion that going over the speed limit is a reasonable thing to do, most student driver schools teach that going 10% over the limit at any given time is often safer than just going the speed limit. It's actually more dangerous to go the speed limit if others on the road are going faster as it creates more opportunities for blind-spot creepers and collisions. And considering that speed limits are created with large, slow-breaking vehicles and the possibility of inclement weather in mind, it's not unreasonable for most people in safe conditions to go a little over.

                                      I might get down voted for this, but it's not the speeding that's the dangerous part (within reason), it's the difference in speeds between cars. There was a study I heard about where accidents were found to happen more frequently in places where the speed limit was slower than necessary than in places where the speed limit matched the straightness/width/traffic-patterns of that section. They found that people generally go the speed limit if it's set at a rate that makes sense and isn't just slower for the purpose of making people go slower. Maybe I'll try to find the study in a little bit.

                                      Its not ablut driving fast or aggressive it's about understanding some people have busy lives and their driving might reflect that, so when you're just moseying down the road without a care in the world keep in mind some people do have cares.

                                          Ridiculous how "driving slow" in America is often just going the speed limit. I sit at the speed limit in the right lane on cruise control whenever I commute, yet everyone around me has to pass at 5-10 over. You know the speed limits are there so that driving is actually safe, right? That's why you go that speed or a couple below, so you don't fucking die, kill other people, or pressure other people into making terrible decisions.

                                          But you've really got to get to work on time, huh

                                          You can drive at the speed limit no one cares about that. But other people drive faster and you need to look around and move from the left lane if it's possible. The main issue is left lane hoggers

                                          While I'm not advocating speeding, a lot of speed limits are well below what could reasonably be considered safe. Studies have been done that increasing speed limits in a lot of circumstances appreciably reduces the rate of accidents. And a lot of speed limits are artificially low so local police can generate revenue more easily. Not everyone who speeds slightly is driving dangerously.

                                          This is just a stream of consciousness that I've been thinking about recently, but the problem with speed limits is that my car can handle the road differently than yours, and you can handle the road differently than the 90 year old next to you...but we have the same speed limit.

                                          So then you think you can handle a certain speed, and that might be true some days, but you might be tired or distracted one day, and you might be going too fast for what you can normally handle. The 'ideal' solution, which would be impractical and annoying, is to wake up every day, take a responsiveness test, then have your speed limit determined for you, at that moment. 65 is probably too fast for some people and too slow for others, when traffic is moving faster it's unsafe to actually just travel at 65. Speed limits are weird.

                                          I've stopped getting frustrated at other drivers, because I realize that their speed and mine only mesh some of the time, and when there's many other drivers, odds are you're going to be going slower or faster than they want to on any given day. Sometimes people get mad at me going 70, other days people are fine hanging behind me at 65. I always stay in the slow lane and apologize to the people that get mad, and just try staying safe and not getting in anyone's way. Driving's become a lot less of a hassle ever since I decided to just let the flow of traffic take me where I'm going, and I just hope I don't piss off too many people along the way.

An elderly man can sometimes drive like a woman. These stereotypes are about 90% right in my estimation.

                                              agreed. I'm not talking about passing lanes, I'm just taking issue with OP calling slow drivers STUPID. it's not that simple

                                              Whenever I read a post speaking critically about slow drivers, I immediately assume they are speaking of those in passing lanes. Because any other reason doesn't make sense. Everyone has a right to drive a speed they are comfortable driving (as long as it's safe). Just do so in the proper lane and yield to faster traffic.

                                              I assume OP means people driving well below the speed limit in any lane for no good reason. If you only feel comfortable doing 40 in a 55, you shouldn't be on the road.

                                              But slow driving people sometimes encounter even slower people and then they have every right to use the passing lane momentarily.

                                              Yeah, and when they do it'd be great if they accelerated their car to more than one mile per hour above the person they're passing, you know, instead of holding up three people behind them who would also like to pass.

                                              I think there is a difference between driving slow and leaving proper space.

                                              Driving slow is never the right answer. Driving the correct speed for the traffic you are in is always the right answer.

                                              You are correct with your bullet points. But like I said, it's not about driving slow but at an appropriate speed.

                                              Left lane for passing. Move over.

                                              Stress is increased for all of those who have to sit behind you. When was the last time your speedometer was calibrated anyway?

                                              Traffic jams are caused by two clueless drivers going exactly the same speed next to each other.

                                              Once again, left lane is for passing.

                                              lol I drive 5-10 mph under the speed limit so I can hit 50+ mpg. I get looks from guys like you all the time but I don't give a fuck 'cause I'm saving money and preserving my engine.

                                              So you were:

                                              1) In the wrong lane.

                                              2) Driving fast, or at least faster than the person in front of you.

                                              3) Not watching the road, and staring at people in their cars.

                                              Yeahhh, and they're the idiot. They're the idiots who:

                                              1) Drive in the right lane

                                              2) Drive Speeds slower than the guy who is currently left of them (you, because you are passing him)

                                              3) keep their eyes on the road

                                              You might want to explain this one to me OP.

                                              How do you know what lane he was in? He might have been stuck behind some guy in the left lane who wouldn't move over and was forced to pass on the right. You also don't know what speed he was going. And glancing does not mean staring.

                                                I did once see a car doing 50 in a 55 and I passed it on my exit ramp. The driver was a fed-up black dude in his 40's. Between that and the sound that car was making, I understood he was going top speed. I feel ya, bro, I feel ya.

                                                Actually, I don't take offense at much. I just chuckled at this meme.
