yellow when they had plenty of time to safely go through the
light.

Actually, the left lane is for passing, not "going faster".
Just because the lane is designated for passing, it does not
give you a freebie to go 10-15 over the limit. Further, if
someone in the left lane is going slower than you, it is good
lane discipline to move from the lane, but they are not required
to speed up any more as long as they are passing someone else.
That being said, left lane discipline in this country will never
be properly enforced simply because it isn't as profitable to
multiple public and private industries to enforce as speeding
is. But then again, we live in a country where people see
driving as a right, not a privilege, and as such we are forced
to legislate safety so that the morons and mouth breathers out
there don't die. Which in turn is creating a new breed of super
morons, dumber than the last generation as the evolve into
newer, higher forms of stupidity. Trust me ladies and
gentlemen, you have not yet begun to see the future of stupid.
My gripes? I hate it when people come to a dead stop on a major
road to make a right hand turn. I hate people who run up on my
ass because I'm in the right lane and not turning (trust me
sunshine, I'll get off the line faster than you will). I hate
fucking 18 wheelers try to use their size to push me around
because I'm in a smaller car (trust me you meth head fuckwit, I
will out brake, out accelerate, and out turn you any day fo the
week and twice on Sundays, and I promise you if you hit me, my
lawyer is better than yours). I hate it when I go to pass
someone, they speed up. I hate it when some ass hole rides in
the left lane, NOT PASSING anyone, and then as soon as I get
back in the right lane, he speeds up. I hate soccer moms in
SUVs. You are piloting a fucking 4000+ pound missile loaded
with gasoline - pay the fuck attention to the road and not your
bratty kid. I hate it when people get on the highway doing 50.
35W south bound at 4:30 is not for the weak or timid, if you
can't get up to 70 on the on ramp, take the back road. I hate
seeing rotted out POS cars. C'mon people, you can at least pick
up some 100k mile Camcordima for a few grand.
I hate the fact that ZR1s can't go fast in a straight line
without hitting everything in sight. What the hell is this
world coming to? Fuck.

Today's rant (technically around 11:40pm) just got off work.
All lights are green, this stupid high school kid (they have
window chalk on their back window) driving their Chevy Blazer
and STOPS at the left turn only on a GREEN LIGHT. I'm behind
them wondering why this person made a FULL STOP AT A GREEN LIGHT
for almost a minute. So I honked at them lightly once, and then
2 more times. They all stick their heads out of the windows
looking at me. I should've blinded them with my HID high beams.
Got onto the highway and zoomed past them on the left lane
while they were trying to catch up to speed limit on the right
lane. Car boosted and I hit 65mph as I changed back to the
right lane less than a quarter mile away from them. I wouldn't
be surprise if they shat themselves. Rant over
Side: 5-0 are really out tonight. I'm glad I didn't keep
speeding down the highway (I'm in gas-conservation mode until
payday)

I dislike honda fit's in the left lane.
Damn bastard, the left lane is for cars that can actually
achieve a decent speed. I was running late and everyone wanted
to go slow and hit the brakes for no reason.

I don't like people that abuse 2 merging highways.
Example: If I'm heading to lewisville from home it's G bush to
35E northbound. The exit that merges bush to 35 is a two lane
exit, okay, but the right lane also ends. On the exit there are
3 seperate signs well spaced out warning you that the lane will
come to an end. There are no signs supporting the well known
fact, however, that if you speed to the merge point NO ONE WILL
LET YOU OVER simply because you did it on purpose and we all
know it.
This bothers me most during rush hour. YOU TAKE THE SAME FUCKING
ROAD EVERY DAY AND YOU FORGET THE LANE ENDS?!?!?!?!? This is why
I am labeled as "that guy" that NEVER lets people over. I in
fact go out of my way to even annoy the person in front of me by
riding so close to their back bumper they'll be begging for a
reach around. And if the moron trying to merge even so much as
GLANCES in my direction, I politely inform him that I know how
to count to 1, sometimes 2.
Point: Don't wait till the last second to merge, do it when you
know the lane will end. It's alot safer and creates less
traffic. And for the love of god don't text and drive. If it's
THAT important then call the person and put it on speaker and
set the phone down inside the car. You'd at least be SOMEWHAT
paying attention. The day I get hit by a kid texting and driving
is the day everyone learns why I keep a shovel and a trash bag
in my trunk.

Just park in the middle in bumper to bumper traffic. The people
behind you will be happy with you. If I had a truck I would do
that all day long.

how about when you getting onto the on ramp merging onto the
highway and the person on the lane you're merging into doesn't
change lanes. Especially when the lane left of them is open. My
friend and I had a debate (she's from ATL) and she said I was
suppose to wait for them to pass even if there's traffic behind
that car. She said it's the merging car's responsibility.
