Speeders get away with breaking the law quite often over the short term, but not over the long term. I do my part as often as possible to ensure that some of them get caught.

Stop trying to be the speed police, move over... if youre going to do 5 over... You're being a troll and going to get people killed because of the aforementioned idiots who are on quests to ****ing kill everybody.

Ignorant doesn't fix ignorant. Speed doesn't kill (not saying driving 120 when its BUSY is right either and I call those bastards in). It's the sudden deceleration from situations created by you guys who are too busy caring about everyone else.

I suppose endangering everyone in traffic was crucial so that they could get to their big mac 30 seconds earlier. They should crack down on tailgaters, too.

As long as you remember the flip-side of that coin. When someone is behind you or me (even if we think we're as fast as them or not or if they are doing the speed limit or not) we should move over. Especially is it's moderate to light/no traffic. And pull-outs aren't fictional!

Move over and quit being passive aggressive with the ignorant attitude of I'll stay in the left lane because I'm choosing to be an a$$ and I'm mad at the world anyway. It's dangerous and you never know if the person behind you is in an emergency. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Could not be any more passive aggressive. Let me guess, you slowly speed up as they try to pass you. Sounds like you have some deeper issues besides speeders.

Slow down and quit being passive aggressive with the ignorant attitude of I'll speed because I want to do so and I'm mad at the world anyway.

+1 What government agency empowered her to "do her part" to slow down traffic/speeders?
