WHY WHY WHY do people drive 10 miles an hour UNDER the posted speed limits on busy two lane highways? They see the stack up of cars behind them, end to end for 3/4 of a mile, can they not simply PULL OVER??? Perhaps they could drive on the BACK ROADS, instead of clogging up major arteries while they sight see?
Some would argue that perhaps the driver of said slow moving vehicle could be scared or ill. PULL OVER AND CALL 911 if your so sick you are impaired at driving, and if your scared GTH off the road before you kill somebody by over reacting (or under reacting), trucks doing 50 mph downhill and around slight curves cannot see your slow moving car holding up 7 cars behind you, he wont kill you, he will kill ME when he rear ends me!
regular traffic stare off types irk me, and make me want to pick my nose while gazing at them, or conversely, blowing kisses to irate folks, freaks em out either way. 
Are you a flasher, beeper, flipper offer or slow moving traffic? Do you have any fun traffic stories to share?

I don't get it either. I see alot of people that are doing that are talking to the passenger of the same vehicle. I thought of getting some stickers to put at the top of my windshield so when they look in their rear view mirror they see "Shuddup and Drive". What I hate most though are the people that can't wait at the stop sign and pull out in front of you, but then go 10 miles under the speed limit. Makes the temptation to rear end them all the more irresistible! That's what we call K-Mart drivers licenses.

OMG wouldn't it be great if our license plates were our car phone numbers? Then you could just call them and say " Excuse me, I have 27 bags of frozen food that is thawing, could you possibly let me by without incident"?
I love the idea of having blank card board and a sharpie pen for when the going gets rough, or slow

I think they do it because they're scared or nervous but if you feel that way then get off the road! It's so dangerous and stupid, if you don't feel comfortable driving the posted limit then you shouldn't be on that road, simple as that. If someone is putting along at 10 miles under the limit and someone else crests a hill behind them, or it's foggy or slippery then that person could very well cause an accident. Grrr, bad drivers drive me crazy!
