Ya know when you're in for a decent drive, at least 10 or more miles, and you pass someone in the beginning parts of your travel, only to see them fly past you just miles later?
Them. And the people who merge at 35-50 mph, so once you get in, you go to pass them, then they punch the gas and whizz up, sometimes even much faster than the speed limit, so you can't pass them. Not sure how many of these people do it on purpose or if they are just that stupid.
Last night on the way to work, hopping a right from my street to the main drag to lead to the freeway, a van with Air Force stuff on it took their sweeeeet slooow time making the left turn onto the same road. I was behind them not long before their 30 mph in a 45 got on my nerves and I passed them. They were going that slow in the furthest left lane. Thank goodness it was after 10 pm.
Anyway, they were going so slow that they stayed pretty far back, and we got on the freeway together and they showed no intention of getting up to speed. I merged in and set the cruise at about 68 and was on my way, them eventually disappearing from my rear view mirror.
A couple of miles later, I see a van come roaring up in the left lane and go whizzing past me at probably 75 mph at least.
"Damn, is that really..." I'm thinking to myself, and then I see the Air Force decals and go "Are you serious? That's THEM? The 30 mph in a 45, get on the freeway at 40 mph van people? Really?!!?!?"
They got way ahead of me, and at the exit before mine, slammed the brakes to take the exit (NOT necessary, the roads were dry and perfect) and took the ramp casually and sloooowly, I watched as I passed.
Really? What. The. Hell.
Then this morning on the way home, I was behind some idiot woman in a Saturn who wouldn't go over 25 on the service road to the freeway (limit 40) and she barely merged at 50, so I got into the left lane to pass her once we were merged in, and I was trying to gain speed so I didn't get smucked by people coming up behind us, but no sooner did I get in the other lane, she roared the gas and was up much faster than I would be comfortable going, so I ended up having to go back over into the right lane.
Dumb. People. Everywhere.
