Might not believe me but there’s a subset of drivers that actually enjoy the ride being dangerous and thrilling 🤷‍♀️

It’s reckless and incredibly immature, most probably won’t admit it or even understand they do it on purpose. They just enjoy the adrenaline and going fast and being an animal about it

  1. Foot off the gas. You will slow down.
  2. Don't lose your nerve
  3. They're gonna pass and then maybe find speed traps for you

I guess this is probably safe. /r/dashcamgifs makes me want as much space as possible between me and the other 2-ton projectiles.

If driving were a sport where you got points/safety for being right, I would drive very differently. I have right of way over that person parked in the intersection? Back to a save point for them!

I forget where she got it, but my mom sometimes quoted a nursery rhyme ending with "he was just as dead as if he'd been wrong."

They can fill entire graveyards with people who had the right of way

Yes, tailgating is bad. Yes, cruising in the middle lane in bad.

In the picture, the person is in the middle lane and not passing anyone. They should move to the right. Because they are in the middle, two different range-of-speed drivers are being funneled into the far left lane, where traffic will start to get clogged. Eventually, assholes will start flicking through traffic with no regard for anyone's safety. A wreck will happen. This all started because someone was coasting in the middle lane. Don't stay in the middle lane if you are not passing someone.
