        no see i meant the ass who expects me to speed to pass someone because they drive like they gotta poop and are holding a mug of hot soup at the same time.

        stop. speeding. washing your blood off the road is keeping me from sleeping back at the station.

          In the situation you described that’d be pretty much everyone. 70 vs 65 would be a bit ridiculous.

            right. if i am going 70, passing someone going 65, and someone zoops up trying to do 80 they can wait until I move back over.

              It’s just that passing so slow and when the limit is 70 makes it a bit dangerous to you (and others) since you know that others aren’t going to be traveling at that speed or passing that slowly.

              Would be less of an issue if someone was going 50 and you were passing at the speed limit at 70.

                oh for sure!! I just picked two close numbers to illustrate a point. the reason for the passing could be safety, etc. (ie: a poorly secured flatbed with harbor freight tools bouncing around.)
