We’ve all been there. Travelling on a 2-lane county or state highway, when we seem to be catching up to someone fast.
We tap on the brake pedal to release the cruise control.
And there we sit. 50 miles per hour on a busy, curvy highway. Not enough visibility to pass. Too much traffic in the oncoming lane to pass on the straight spots. Traffic beginning to stack up behind you like some New Jersey breakfast classic. And you’re temper is the fried egg.
But wait, there’s more!
You enter an unincorporated community where the speed limit reduces to 40. You think, oh great, now we’ll be travelling 35 miles per hour or slower.
But, now that single seemingly aloof driver is now travelling 6 miles OVER the speed limit.
So what is it with these people? Are they truly aloof? Are they doing it to troll you and everybody behind you? Are they practicing safety in rural areas and recklessness in urban areas?
