Responsible for my own happiness? I can't even be responsible for my own breakfast

Poison was talking about riding right behind someone. You were talking about someone trying to pass you. You didn't mention slowing down in your particular situation, though perhaps my assumption wasn't warranted.

I meant the same situation that poison was talking about, yeah... In my head I'm thinking pass as in like, the guy behind me wants to be in front of me. Perhaps I should write better. :P



all i am is a contrary canary
but i'm crazy for you
i watched you cradling a tissue box
sneezing and sniffling, you were still a fox

Why do you insist on passing? It doesn't get you there any faster.
What do you base this on? If they pass you, they have greater speed, so they get there faster... or am I missing something?

Yes. The only way that'd work is assuming no one else is on the road, so the lights are in your favor, or the person ahead of you is going twenty or more miles slower than you. The people that swerve around or through traffic usually are within five mph of everyone around them. Most cars that pass me end up at the same stoplight I do. What did that accomplish?

Also, why you mad?

Why do you guys insist on perpetuating road rage? This is why I can't drive on the road without some asshole not letting me pass him. D:

I tend to over critique other people when I think they aren't taking me seriously.
i.e. when someone says something really stupid without thinking about it.
Sometimes they take it seriously though.

Some do; some don't. If you're in a hurry, it adds up. By defending your assholishness, you're being disingenuous, laying the blame for your assholishness on another party; my complaint about Voyager applies in full against you, as you speed up, recklessly endangering those against you, and all so you can annoy another driver.

I'm always within five miles per hour of the speed limit. Always. If I slip, it is completely accidental. Swerving around cars? Still an asshole move.

In that case, either your speeding up was insubstantial, or you were going at or below speed limit, likely significantly slower than the traffic around you. Dickish.

Lol...did you read my scenario where it happens the most, even? The speed increases 15 - 20 mph within a few blocks. People try to beat the traffic. So yes, I speed up quickly, because dicks deserve it. Otherwise, I'll be in the speed limit.

In other situations, that's what I mean by people who tailgate, go around and not get anywhere. I couldn't count the number of times people did go around only to match the speed I was going? I'm not a bad driver, or risky or stupid. They just wanted to toss their weight around.

In cases where dbags are going twenty or thirty over, there's no reason to match them. And even in this scenario, they're speeding up towards more traffic usually anyways, which kinda blocks them in regardless.

So... "I always keep within 5 mph of the speed limit" was disregarding the speed ups, specifically what I was talking about?

They're not dicks for speeding up. You're a dick for preventing it.

Have you ever noticed that everyone going faster than you is a maniac and everyone going slower is a idiot?

Moral of the story: let others do whatever the fuck they want on the road, worry about yourself.

I don't understand. But you seem mad, do you speed up to pass people going the speed limit?

If the traffic is going faster than the speed limit, yes. And it typically is, substantially.

Quote from MillenniumArmy
- When driving at the speed limit on a highway, the person behind me switches lanes to try and pass me. He speeds up and I do too. Although it's failed most of the time, I like to make that person earn the privilege to be in front of me.
As long as you aren't doing that on a normal road (IE: no dedicated passing lanes). Because that's fucking dangerous otherwise.

It's not about getting anywhere faster, it's about the competition! Also, sometimes I hit a streak of yellows by weaving through traffic and I do end up saving some time :3

I don't think I do anything bad. Honestly.

I was reading through all this stuff and realised that I can't think of anything bad that I do. I've spent my entire life being as considerable as possible to others even if they don't deserve it and I know they wouldn't return the favour.

I do get mad when people speed up when I'm overtaking them though. Just why? I don't understand what thought process makes people put their foot down when someone going faster than them wants to overtake. It causes inconvenience and it can be dangerous. I remember some dick who sped up when I tried to overtake him on a fairly long stretch of straight road - I was thinking "Why the hell is he doing this? Doesn't he realise that there's another car now approaching in the opposite direction?" My car is not very powerful at all and I had to slam on the brakes to avoid a collision when I realised he was just going to match my speed.

That said, I don't like people who are impatient when they try to overtake. Take one example - I was on the M3, which is a three lane highway going from London to Southampton. The Highway Code states that you should be in the leftmost lane unless you're overtaking someone. This rule doesn't apply so much when traffic is really congested. I was in the rightmost lane overtaking slow traffic in the other lanes, which were pretty congested, going about 10mph over the limit. A silver Audi races up behind me and starts flashing his lights - so inconsiderate seeing as I couldn't safely pull into another lane due to the congestion. I found a break in the traffic after about a minute and pulled in, then flipped the bird at the guy as he passed me. His passenger went mental and started hanging out of the window yelling and gesticulating. It was pretty funny.

By the way, the Highway Code also states that speeding up when someone gets close to your bumper and looks like they want to overtake, is dangerous and instead you should maintain speed or slow down to make overtaking easier and create a bigger space between you and the car in front.

I lift weights in order to know that if I want, I can beat anyone who pisses me off. Not that I really ever would unprovoked, but I guess it's evil to have the drive to need to. Just part of who I am - I have to be able to at least have mutually assured destruction in case something happens.
