Speed limit, 50 MPH, but 25% of the drivers were going 35-40 (with about 20 car lengths of free space in front of them). 25% of the cars were playing real life F&F and cutting around the slow drivers like they were running from The Rock driving a 3,000 horsepower MRAP.
49.999% of the other drivers were just driving around with their heads up their own asses, which is actually quite impressive considering visibility in that position is virtually zero (and it showed). Trying to change lanes when there’s already a car where they wanted to go, slamming on the brakes at the last second instead of a steady normal braking move, etc.
Then there was me, the guy that didn’t get the memo regarding today’s morning rush hour theme of “Dumb And Dumber Three: The Drivening”.
God help them if I end up gettin an F250 4x4 with a brush guard for my next vehicle.

DUuuuuuude! This weekend was the weekend of being stuck behind terrible terrible terrible drivers!
Saturday morning took like twice as long as normal to go disc golfing because horrible people cutting me off, traffic and a stupid draw bridge.
Then sunday i was almost rear ended by a double length (bendy in the middle bus) because i was stuck behind a subaru legacy going 10 (!) mph. I’m like 99 percent sure the person was on PCP. They were sitting like halfway on their seat and halfway on the center console, were bumping music super loud and did not look old. And were going so slow a bus decided to tailgate me.
They finally turned left just as a pedestrian decided to cross the street. I stopped, but the bus almost didn’t.

The only exciting thing on my commute this morning was a state trooper pulling a cool buck twenty up 287.
Gotta love Jersey.

The passing lane hogs are out in full force, too.

Not bad. Do they drive Tahoes up there like they do down here?

Not too many Tahoes. Mostly ecoboost Explorers and the occasional 5.7 Charger.

Four lane state highway and super slow/overly-cautious drivers were in all four lanes. It was almost like it was actually planned.

Teleworked today. It was glorious. Only traffic blocking my way was a 97lb chocolate lab looking for treats.

Your tag line almost made me spit out my coffee, lol. It applies to me, both because it’s what I think everyday and the fact it’s probably not accurate.
