I drive at or just below the speed limit. Tickets are expensive, and I can't afford them. I keep to the far right-hand lane whenever possible so as not to impede traffic flow, yet even when the passing lanes are empty there is frequently some wank who insists on riding my back bumper.
If it's raining, I slow down even more. On several occasions some butthead has blown past me on a rain-slicked highway only to wind up in an accident a mile or two further on down the road. I'd like to think this taught them a lesson, but...it's not unusual at all for people who pull out in front of me without looking to already have a huge dent on their car exactly where I would have hit them if I hadn't stopped in time! Apparently, the cause/effect relationship of such things isn't obvious to some people.
