Not much thinking is required when one puts the cruiise control on in the left lane and force others to pass on the right. These folks won't ever need to worry about someone being in front of them when they are busy discussing work, sports or the kids on the phone.

In some cases, the self appointed traffic regulators are there to ensure everyone is "safe" by slowing down the entire highway.
can i get a shout out for audi tt drivers... they are the worst in the DC area. every time i see one, i change lanes to stay as far away as possible!

Then on Friday, I drove my Maserati Spyder and had the same thing happen as this clown maneuvered to take pictures of the car from rear, side, and front. At first I thought he was just a nut with a new phone until he came within inches of colliding with me. What is it with these clowns???? Haven't they ever seen a friggin sports car before?

being (around) awesome (cars) is just part of your normal daily routine, but for most people it's a rare treat

Yes it is better to photographed because your car is cool, than photographed because your car is dorky...

yeah... ain't that the truth. i just wish they would watch where they are going. another interesting facet of having nice cars... every time i drive my one of my cars to a shopping area, i usually park away from the crowd but still notice hand and face prints on my windows when i return. curious folks i guess!!

Ditto on that. Argh! no matter how far and remote I park, good odds of coming back to finger, nose, palm prints.

only on this board am I "normal" to carry a full detail kit bag, pre-packed and always refreshed with clean micro-fiber towels, window wipes, dry towels, etc behind my passenger seat.
