Re: whats wrong with people????

i'd also like to know what's wrong with people!!! i was driving down the highway last weekend coming back into town from camping with four passengers in my 98 gmc jimmy. the highway starts out as two lanes, one lane in each direction. the northbound (the direction i was doing) splits into two lanes, the left lane SPECIFICALLY a passing lane with PLENTY of signs that say "KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS" and the speed limit goes from 55mph to 65mph right after the second lane comes in. well we're kind of in a rush to get back to town to get my friend to work on time and i'm in the right lane. i put on my blinker to get in the left lane to pass the truck that is in front of me (that was towing a trailer w/2 ATV's) and there is a guy in a chevy cavalier in the left lane with a dog in the back seat who decides he's going to go about 60mph, matching the speed of the truck in the right lane (that i was trying to pass.). WHO THE BLAZES DOES THAT!?!?! you dont go UNDER the speed limit in the passing lane, i dont care who the hell you think you are. so what am i supposed to do? i cant pass either of these guys. all of a sudden the guy in the cavalier decides to brake check me IN THE F$&KING RAIN. @$$#013!!! gosh, i was so mad!!! i ended up passing him and as i did all four of my passengers proceeded to flip him off, write down his license plate number, and call the state troopers and report him for unsafe driving or something

i realize now though that if he brake checked me and i had to slam on my brakes to avoid rear-ending him i was probably following too closely. but honestly!!! who does that in the rain in alaska while obviously driving under the speed limit in a passing lane?!?

oh, yeah, and dont let girls -- or anyone for that matter -- drive your car unless they take driving seriously. people that put make up on, talk on cell phones, dont use turn signals, etc. should NOT be on the road.
