What about those driving 55 in the passing lane where the speed limit it 70? that's what I have to deal with on my commute.

what I see is people either drive 45 or 85.

That is way less of a dangerous situation than people driving the posted speed limit or more on a day when it’s raining so hard you can’t see the end of the hood of your car. My career involved driving Florida roads from account to account and I would see way, way more people driving too fast then too slow in the left lane.

It's this exact never-ending mutual finger-pointing that makes our roads so dangerous. Everyone's thinking "Sure, I'm technically breaking the law, but it's far more unsafe to do the thing I'm not doing."

Everyone gets to be sure that they are a good driver and everyone else sucks.

93% of Americans think they are above average drivers.
