    Yep it's the law here too. But since you really want to play that game. Driving over the speed limit is breaking the law, tailgating is breaking the law and aggressive driving is breaking the law.

    3 to 1, I win.

    I answer to GTFO... NOPE. I am a very courteous driver and do drive in the right lane, but on the chance that I am passing someone else (which at that point makes them the slower traffic) and some bozo behind me is upset because he/she is not getting their way and tries to bully me in to moving, they will meat with resistance. I pay my taxes the same as everyone else and I have a right to drive on the highways that I help pay for, without being harassed by someone who feels I need to cater to them.

    Dear Urban Guys (and girls)

    Y'all should move to the country - this road rage stuff is gonna give you a heart attack.

    Dear rural brewer,

    You are correct. If there are more than 3 cars on my country road, it's a busy day. I just sip my coffee and drive as fast or as a slow as I see fit for the commute. Its nice to gaze in the distance at the sunrise, and pastures. I love the Willamette Valley!

    Sincerely,
    Relaxed, on time, and not a d!ck on the road

    Dear Skeaterbait --
    I have no problem with you using the left lane as a passing lane. What bugs the [email protected] out of me is when people STAY in the left lane. :)
    Sincerely,
    Leadfoot

    PS... I come by it honestly ... I used to be a TV news videographer and old habits die VERY hard. :)

    Dear LHBS,

    Thanks for having a sale on zythos hops. I didn't want to use the Tettnang hops this recipe called for anyway.

    Dear "I allow myself plenty of time to get to work,"

    This is a great way to get yourself hurt or killed. "God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy." It isn't worth the risk; I prefer to get out of the way and remove myself from the immediate and inevitable danger. And I usually pray they only hurt themselves in the impending wreck.

    Sincerely,

    With Age Comes a Certain Perspective

    PS: I do have a fantasy of slapping such idiot drivers before rendering assistance once they have caused the inevitable wreck...

    I'm sorry the suburbs have grown up around your farm, but could you PLEASE stop driving your farm equipment on the main roads?

    Dear people who are arguing about how to drive,

    I made no mention of freeways or passing lanes in my OP about rush hour traffic. I will continue to drive as slow or fast as I want regardless of how angry it makes aggressive drivers. Again, when it is bumper to bumper at 4:00 what do you gain by riding my ass except unneeded stress? Whatever you're racing home to will be there when you get there. If you don't see that, no amount of education, persuasion or open mindedness is going to help. I was almost killed by a drunk driver and I have a permanently stiff neck because of it. So I take ****ty driving a little more seriously than most I guess. I'm slightly tense every time I drive and aggressive driving really ratchets up the anxiety for me. So again, chill the eff out. Using the power of math, it can be discovered that you are not getting there faster and you are making it unsafe for the rest of us. And for what? Because "HUR DUR GET OUT OF MY WAY?!?!?"

    Sincerely,

    Nobody likes the way anybody else drives

    You don't have the right of way. I have an advance green. It doesn't matter where the hell I am, I've got the right of way.

    Dear Suburban driver,

    No.

    Can you please stop providing a market for developers that contribute to urban sprawl and encroachment on arable land? If not, then can you at least not complain about the realities of living in this kind of development?

    Sincerely,

    John Deere

    Dear John Deere,
    Will you please face the fact that not everyone wants to live cheek-by-jowel in the cities? Some of us want a little room to spread out. We also don't want to be stuck behind a farm tractor driving 5 miles to the next field at 5 miles per hour.
    Please... go find some other land farther from the main population and sell your lovely farm land to some greedy developer for twice what your new farm land will cost.
    Sincerely,
    Suburban driver

    Dear Newsman,

    The farmer was far away from your city. The city came to them. So, yall to blame. If you want fresh food and meat, you better relax and thank them and go around the equipment.

    Dear Suburban driver,

    Why should I sell out? I'm not unhappy about the traffic thing and doing so would only further the problem. All I'm saying is don't buy a home next to an airport and then complain about the noise. :mug:

    And I mean that Sincerely,

    Given the direction this thread has gone, I propose a new format/title: The "grumble grumble" , "mumble grumble" thread. Observe:

    Though by definition that may be more appropriate for the Drunken Ramblings and Mindless Mumblings forum.

    This thread is supposed to be about fun things like annoying children, stupid people, boobs, and boogers. It's veering off into dangersous territory like urban sprawl and traffic congestion. Yech! :drunk:

    I don't care how thirsty you are, necrophilia is sick. I'm pretty sure even if you WERE enough of a pervert to rape a 2000 year old corpse, there wouldn't be a corpse left. Stick to boobs like the rest of us.
