The Unwritten Rules of the Road

http://www.askmen.com/top_10/cars/to...-an-ass_4.html

I read through those and found myself agreeing with every one. As Jeremy Clarkson said, "If you drive a shit car, you are a horrible driver, because when people who have no interest at something then they are no good at it."

#3 is my biggest pet-peeve.

No.3 Don’t Block The Left Lane
The left lane is the passing lane -- get in, get out. At least that’s the urban legend. Too often we’re seeing the left lane as a place to mindlessly drone along. Try that on the German Autobahn and you’ll come home without a vital organ or two. When someone won’t relinquish left lane dominance, others’ patience runs understandably thin and things can get dangerous with tailgating and risky attempts to squeeze past. Even if you don’t like faster traffic passing you, look at it this way: They’ll flush out the radar for you.





I find myself behind a driver in the left lane (generally a Dodge Neon or something shitty) and they just refuse to get over. I flash them and they still will not budge. Its just ridiculous. In Georgia we have signs all over the highways informing drivers to get out of the left lane, and slower traffic stay right. I'm not sure how a Dodge Neon going 60 in a 65 thinks that its the fastest driver. Like Clarkson said they simply do not care about driving and therefore suck at it.

They feel we should punish because we have nice cars... Most of the time we get taken advantage of because we have a nice car and are not willing to let others hit us before letting them get in front.... They are all jerks!
