But I think we should get a vote on the limits.

"...Without those studies, the current speed limits are set below what the majority of drivers actually travel."

That is the funniest thing I've read all day.  I'm not sure I've EVER gone below 70 - 75mph in a group.  And that's in the slow lane   

It's a lot worse on the Dallas North Tollway, I've learned to stay the hell out of the left lane no matter my speed because there's always Brittany Spears-clone in some outrageously exotic Euro car sucked up right on your tail, top down, hammer-down, yapping on the cell phone.  Hell, I think the left lane should be unlimited speed... Of course people would have to learn lane discipline.  Or maybe not - Darwin's theory of natural selection might just be the thing to weed out the head-up-ass (Hu-A) folks.

And if you're driving your car, does anyone else totally freak out when you look in your rearview mirror and another car is so close you can't even see their grill?  Jesus H. Christ!!!  Where are my meds?!?!?!?

Phew, that's my hot-button topic; see what you've done Andy?    


P.S.  This rant is NOT a rant against women drivers...   
        Move along... no controversy here
