Road Rage
Can I tell you how idiotic 75% of all people are when driving on the interstate? I know, you’re not one of them, and I’m preaching to the choir, right? I just drove 3,600 miles round trip to SE Arizona and back, going via SLC, Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson, then back via LA, Sacramento, Portland. The I-5 crowd was the worst. For the left-hand lane, speed limits are taken as “minimal suggested speeds”, and big-ego SUVs are always finger-fucking your exhaust pipe. So you can either join the crowd and drive bumper-to-bumper at 85 (so you can arrive at your destination 5 minutes earlier, but die from stress 5 years younger), or duck and cover into the right-hand lane which is almost maxed out with 18-wheelers and “Deliverance”-vintage poverty hulks doing 50. Or weave back and forth. I suggest flying.
