So I'm driving home from school and I'm on the freeway. I'm cruising in the left lane at about 75. Next thing I know, I'm stuck in a thick pack of cars and about 50 yards ahead is all open freeway in all the lanes. I'm stuck in the left lane going 60 now. Takes another 10 mins of driving till cars start making room for me to maneuver ahead. I finally pass the lead car in the left lane and it's an elderly couple in a focus putting along. I have never been so irritated with being stuck in traffic. I guess it's just the stupid drivers ahead that cause hold up that gets to me. So like any good person I spit fumes on the slow poke pack and let them see the *** of my A4 wave goodbye.

It was like dodging bullets the way little pieces were flying at met. Took about a minute before i found an opening to pass the bastard!

There should be laws against that.

Doing the speed limit in the left hand lane is *somewhat* justifiable, but doing below the limit shows that you're inconsiderate, innatentive and dangerous! There's a section on southbound I-25 in CO just past castle rock where the speed limit goes from 65 to 75. Without fail, I get stuck behind some ******** in the left hand lane going 60 to pass a car doing 55 in the right hand lane. It's usually 10-15 minutes after the speed limit goes up that you can actually drive @ the speed limit. Crap like that backs up traffic for miles before it gets straightened out and you can finally go fast.

Might just be because I care more about this car than my old 86 Mazda 626, but it seems like there's a whole lot more rocks on the road. Everytime I hear the "pop" sound from a piece hitting my car or windshield I feel like I'm taking a blow.

Chris not @ Toyo now

In CA all trucks must be covered.
