What is it with some drivers? You know the ones I mean, they are the ones who think nothing of driving 10 to 20 miles an hour under the speed limit when there is no discernable reason for being that slow AND IN THE FAR LEFT LANE. I guess I wouldn't mind so much if they were all alone in their leasurely pursuit of getting somewhere, but where do their twin brothers come from so that the two of them are sitting side by side (by side by side on some freeways)? If there were a ton of cars and trucks in front of them it would not matter so much, but when there is open and free space for multitudes of car lengths stretching out to miles, in some cases, why do they sit together? I wonder if their cars are negatively impacted by going under too many power lines and becoming magnetically realigned so they have no choice...
UPDATE: Gray Wolf adds - Ah yes, I know them well. My own experience is on the Viaduct/Hwy 99/SR509 on the weekends. The posted speed limits are between 50 and 60, yet most people on these routes on the weekends insist on only going 40 to 45. And these are the same people who whizz by you during the week, doing 70, 80, 85 and as they whizz by, give you the one fingered salute. People, if you're going to drive on the freeway, drive at the posted speed limit, please!
