I have timid merger tendencies, but I'll hang out on the shoulder instead of merging at a too-slow speed. It usually doesn't come to that though... it's just a tendency. (I'm also, in spite of my timidity, capable of merging with less than 0.25 miles of room.)
What annoys me is if I go out of my way to let somebody on the highway, and they don't take it. |

I'm usually running 70+ by the time I hit the top of the ramp. Our mergelanes actually run the full mile between exits and serve as entrance/exit lanes, so you better be at full speed when you get there.

We had crappy roads this weekend.
It is currently a mix of snow and sleet up where I live, but nothing here. I want a blizzard. I want an ice storm freaking blizzard from hell with high winds and huge drifts. This school closes MUCH more readily than where I used to work.  It might have been last year my old school finally closed (hardly ever does) and while it was too crappy to get to work my car found the grocery and the beer. Those were good times. Sigh...

Central Tennessee, apparently, doesn't even get snow. WTF? But we do get freezing rain, as I found out this morning when I went out to call the dogs in from doing their business and stepped on what I thought was wet wood. Nope. ICE. In bare feet. Gods I can be an idiot first thing in the morning.

Really Old drivers should NOT be allowed in the left lane. In fact there should be a special permit that only allows certain people in the left lane.

The old drivers of today learned to drive before there were interstates, and 55mph was fast. (Although the speedometers went to 140. I never understood that.)
Imagine what kind of trouble classic will get into when he's 85 and driving his age down the highway.  "Damn kids. Get outta my way."

Get the fuck outta the overtaking lane unless you're going past someone arsehole! I don't give a fuck how old you are or what sort of car you're driving. If you aren't overtaking, you shouldn't be in the right hand lane.

I do however need to drive in the center lane just too keep my kid from sighing too much at my old lady driving which is never below the speed limit. I find myself mentioning to the passerbys that 'I' am following the legal speed limit but as they blur past me they do not seem to notice or take heed. Quote:
