The drive home from work is kinda interesting now, because from my entrance to the state line is under construction; both lanes have been scraped down and the speed limit has been dropped from 70 to 60.
For the most part people are actually obeying the limit, well for locals at least... which is to say they drive 5-10 mph over limit.
And today wasn't much different. Traffic was tight and moving around 60-70 depending on the car but... there simply wasn't anywhere to go and no way to pass anyone. The cars in front of me were doing 65-70, and the cars & trucks in the left lane were doing the same, neck & neck alongside.
So when the black SUV a few cars back got antsy and moved to the left lane she learned... Oh there's nowhere to go. (duh!)
Eventually traffic started opening up a little and... I kinda knew what she was going to try doing and ... no. She was edging up alongside me, and I suspect was going to try to wedge in between me and the car right in front of her, forcing me back unless I wanted a collision.... Except she couldn't do that because I sped up.
So she moved behind me and started tailgating to "intimidate" me into going faster. Except yet again there was nowhere to go. There was a truck immediately to my left and a car immediately ahead of me.
So, I warned her off with my brakes.
Her: MIDDLE FINGER!!!!!!!!
but seriously, learn how to fucking drive. Where was I going to go? Into the trunk of the car ahead of me?
