This thread is brought on by whoever is in that "Brown Kia Sorrento" that wanted to - and then did - go around myself, and then an older gentleman in a Chrysler Sebring to go all of about 1/8 of a mile in front of us to his home.
If you know Leisure Village, you know the busy part by the front, where the two mailboxes and speed humps are, is like the busiest one.. This guy went over the double yellow, and again, around the car in front of me, merged back in, lawn truck doing leaves or something.. Well, shoot. I suppose we just weren't going fast enough. (We were doing 25-30. The older gentleman in front of me, I did not feel was going too slow.)
First, I got the high beams flicked at me.. Ok, buddy, I see you.
Then the pass.
I mean.. come on.
Sure that was *technically* a road rage *observed* because I am pretty sure if a cop sees you do that, it is a reckless driving because of the double yellow.. It is over and done with now, but, here, the thread.
I was once chased through Brick NJ in my Infiniti by a psycho in a big white GMC "lifted" "bro truck" that I swear must have been drunk, that would make sense. This gave off the same vibes but was a lot tamer.
Someone in a pickup flashed me Thursday on the Garden State. I was going 70+ in one of the middle lanes. When the heck did people start thinking that middle lane drivers need to move over for them? He's flashing me because someone in the left lane was going slow. Yeah go screw buddy.
Don’t get me started! Going 70 in the FAR RIGHT lane isn’t good enough for most of them.
I must spread some reputation before giving it to you again.
In the past few months, this may have started in 2020 but for sure in 2021.. I have become "that guy" that will accelerate to 75, and set the cruise at 75.
I get tailgated and passed like you would think I am going 50, usually................................
I sometimes take it up to 80 but there really isn't any point.

80 really is the bare minimum in the state. I feel 90 is the new 80 now though.

It's *almost* like Chicago... 80 is like the "I'm just getting warmed up, haven't had my coffee yet."
^^ Actually... In that respect.. Yeah, 80-85 on the low side IS New Jersey. To a T. Go on the Parkway between 5:30a.m. and 7 in the morning...............
Chicago, south of Chicago, on the 55.. 100plus is not uncommon at. All. NJ is not *quite* there yet but.. Yeah, 85-90. I don't want to be *that guy* with video with a phone in hand (that is illegal) but I have considered an HD Mirror Cam.. this way, it's not an advertisement that "Hey, my car has a dash cam," these can become theft targets and make you stand out about as much as a radar detector, if a cop knows you have one (sees it as he walks up to your car, OR sees something on the dash that COULD be one,) oh boy, let's go take a look and greet you down the road whereas normally they wouldn't have.
I still don't see any police on the road *most of the time* but I don't particularly mind that. Sometimes, yeah. If you know the road....
Had it just yesterday, doesn't matter the size of your vehicle, I am not aware of any car made today, except for MAYBE a Mitsubishi Mirage I've seen a few, that can't do more than 100. And maybe even it can too.
"I feel the need.. The need for SPEED!" - New State Motto. Maybe Jack can endorse it?
Although the whole thing could have been avoided, from the beginning.. Some people are just psycho. Like the Lurch looking dude in the silver Benz
Have to know when to break it off, people. Have to. Stand up for yourself once, and evaluate from there..
