I spend a great deal of time driving. Due to the length of my territory and the need for me to be at the OTHER end of it so often, I drive about 800 miles a week. Most of that is on Highway 99 between here and Fresno and a smaller part of it between Fresno and Merced. I believe that the world's worst drivers are regular 99 users and the truck traffic is overwhelming at times. It drives me crazy. It's bad enough that California has it's idiotic 55mph limit for trucks which only causes bottlenecks when they are having a 55 vs. 56mph passing fest and creates such a dangerous disparity in speeds between them and cars(car speed limit is 70 on most sections of 99). I generally drive about 80 and I use my cruise control. That's the thing that makes your car(or truck)go the same speed all the time. It is standard equipment on most cars built after 1984. Why then, are there so many people who so obviously refuse to use it? Escalades, Town Cars, Civics and the rest..I KNOW they have the feature, but you can bet you will pass one at 80 with the cruise on and a mile later it will pass you back..then you'll pass it again, and so on. Or, even worse, are the ones who you catch up with, they wont get out of the passing lane. It's the one on the left. It's not a FAST lane that allows you to drive 100 miles in it because you are going the speed limit! It is a PASSING lane. Anyway, these idiots won't get over so you move into the right lane to go around them and they speed up. Or they slow down when they approach a slower vehicle in the slow lane. Many are chatting happily on their cell phones, some are reading a map or adjusting their kids carseat or some other distracting chore. Some are just assholes and some are just bad drivers not paying attention. If someone comes up behind me, I don't care if I am going 100 mph(my work truck actually cuts off at about 95)I get out of their way. If someone is passing me, my cruise control will assure that I won't speed up as they move by me. I try and stay calm these days because I don't want to get in trouble for running a car off the road or punching some idiot while on duty in the company truck. This is frowned upon. I don't have road rage issues, but I DO understand them. So, the next time you are tooling down the freeway at 65 in the fast lane and somebody comes up behind you, kindly pull over. Better yet, don't stay in the fast lane. Please use your cruise control when possible so you don't vary your speed when you are changing CDs or lighting a smoke. Driving is a privilege, not a right. That means you do NOT have the right to drive any way you like, but rather, you are obligated to do the right things on the road..Like getting out of MY way!
