God, this. I live north of Baltimore and work south of it. Every day there's at least one idiot coasting along without a care in the world. They have all day to get where they're going, so you and everybody else get to take all day too. Then there are the ones who are well aware that they are holding a long line of cars up but "gently caress those people, they don't get to decide how fast I have to drive. I'm driving the speed limit."
:psyduck: yes gently caress those people obeying the law. I wanna speed!

I can't tell if the cartoon SPLAT at :44 was in the original commercial or added by the uploader, but either way I approve.

God drat, I laughed harder at this than anything else today. It's so comical I'm surprised there isn't a laugh-track, since you (or at least I) expect that maybe the driver will hit one kid on his rush to get where ever, but nope. He goes straight for the multikill/ace. Classic British humor.

Yes, while the actual speed limit is 55 or 65 depending where you are, the actual traveling speed that most drivers in this area maintain is 65 to 75, or more, so gently caress those smug assholes coasting along in the fast lane holding up a line of cars behind them as all the traffic in front of them gets farther and farther away, because they've decided to be self appointed speed monitors.

Sometimes I make mistakes on the road, sometimes I stop myself before I do something on the road that may be inconsiderate or petulant, most of the time I focus on following the rules of the road and being nicer to people even if they're not being nice.

If you're driving in the left-hand lane of traffic and not passing anyone, you're probably breaking the law even if you're not speeding.

A while ago I'm on the highway and the driver in front of my won't let some guy over. This guy had been weaving in and out of traffic, darting past everybody and falling back as his lane slowed down. So he decides he wants to merge but the guy in front of me didn't let him. The solution to this was to roll down his window and launch a big glob of spit at the guy's car. Now can anybody tell if, while traveling at 50+mph, that glob of spit reached its target?

Answer: No, in this particular case it blew back and splatted against the side of the spitter's car.

If you want to do the speed limit, good on you for not speeding. If you wanna do the speed limit in the passing lane while others are going faster, you're now obstructing traffic, which is a ticketable offense. I generally dont exceed the speed limit because getting somewhere 30 seconds early isn't worth risking a hundred bucks worth of tickets and ungodly amounts in increased insurance, but I'm also not a vengeful little prick who feels the need to be a citizen police officer, so I just keep right.

If people are going faster than you, get to the right. If you don't like getting right, either speed up or loving deal with it. This isn't some sort of opinion that can be debated, there are laws on the books covering it and there is a right or wrong answer. Spoiler, you're wrong.

Who said there was? Someone being a blissful idiot is just as if not more infuriating than an antagonistic idiot.

The only people talking about people blocking the fast lane intentionally are the slow-driving weenies themselves tsk-tsking the criminal element that dares to drive 73 in a 65.

sting operations are sometimes so satisfying. I remember seeing years ago on Cops where they setup a thing in this high crime projects area where a semi would breakdown and the driver would get instructions from his supervisor to walk to the nearest service station (not an absurd situation) as then locals had devised little hand tools to jimmy open the back and start taking the cargo. But the cops set up a false interior with a trap door with like a half dozen cops hiding and would wait til guys were fully in the car before jumping out and arresting them. That was a fun episode.

Yeah, that was a good one!

A good one I saw was this thing where they set up an easily stealable car in high crime areas. Eventually someone comes along and steals the thing. It's also fitted with cameras and a remote kill switch, and the looks on the criminals faces when that thing shuts off is hilarious.

I only have canyoneyes for you
When the legislature reduced the freeway speed limits (in the 90's, I think), California Highway Patrol sent out their vehicles to take up all available lanes of traffic going at exactly the speed limit on the commuter routes during peak time. It took people hours extra to get to work that day.
I remember seeing news helicopter video of the cops driving in a fixed line, with an empty highway in front of them and what looked like a high speed parking lot behind them, backed up for miles.
