    Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

    I took that to heart when I first heard it at like 19

      Nope. Driving slower is fine as long you realize you can pull off when several cars are lined up behind you. Obstructing the flow of traffic is arguably more dangerous than going 5-10 over the speed limit.

      Of course we’ve been saying since the 80s that we should do annual driving tests for those over 65, and im saying in 2025 we need to find a way to outright disable phones in the car. Pull off and call them back if its super important or fuck off.
