This also applies to assholes who won't co-operate in merging situations.

I've zoned out a few times going 35 in a 55.

This also applies to tailgaters when you already reached the speed limit. >:(

In NJ it's illegal to drive continuously in a the left passing lane. You always get that  one idiot who thinks he owns the fast lane and drives slow in it for miles.

Too slow or too fast disrupts the flow of traffic.

If someone is tail gating get out of the way. You are not the regulator of the speed limit. Especially if you are in the left passing lane.

No, but the state is the regulator of the speed limit and if the speed limit is 65 and you're doing 65 in the left lane, then you're obeying the traffic law and the person going faster and tailgating you, is breaking the law. Fact is, if I am in the left lane going 75-80 in a 65 and still getting tail gaited, then I will not get out of the way.

If someone is tailgaiting me and I'm going at the speed limit and there's nowhere to pass....I go slower.

The speed limit is there for a reason, as are other rules, if everyone did whatever they wanted and think the rules don't somehow apply to them we would live in chaos.

Somewhat related,

I can't stand when there is a four way stop sign and another car gets to the adjacent stop sign  WAY before you yet insists on waving you along. You realize he got to the stop sign first, so you wave him along, It becomes some sort of pissing contest with neither car willing to go first. Both start screaming in their car and waving their hands saying "You go ….go ahead..." and waving each other along. Look, the rule is if you got to the four way stop first, you go first. Don't do me any favors. It's simply confusing when you don't follow the rules of the road by trying to be extra polite, or just controlling, demanding others go before you, whatever it is just follow the rules of the road and we'll all will get where we have to go faster. Old people are notorious for this. It's time to merge, they wave others along even through they got there first. Same with 4 way stop signs. It's just fucking confusing and dangerous. It's not safe, it's not polite. Whether stop sign or merging, if you get there first, GO FIRST.  STOP WAVING ME ALONG!!!!!!

The speed limit is the LIMIT. MAXIMUM speed.

Doesn’t mean hitting that mark is an always-type requirement.

Me, I’m often told I drive too slow. However, I never hog right lanes, and, in 34 years of driving, have never had an accident.

I’ve also never driven without a pre-selected CD (cassette in the days of yesteryear) tagging along. Never. If I’m driving, I am jamming.

It’s my absolute favourite listening environment.

If you are in a hurry because your time-management skills blow ass, go around Fortress and leave the boy to ROCK.

While slow drivers are annoying, intentional tailgaters are also assholes. Guys that tailgate someone with the entire freeway open to easily just go around the slow car and be on your way. But no, you don't want to go around and actually go faster, some LIKE intimidating and riding the back of a fucking car just to let out the pent up aggression at their failed life. Seen people tailgated at 1am on an empty freeway and only 2 cars on the road. Fucking assholes.
