A Tahoe went roaring past me just last week as I was tooling along at 55 (in a 50 zone!), just past the engine's sweet spot, but mostly to keep everyone else from climbing up my tailpipe. My wife and I share the ride in our little car, and the Tahoe had the driver in it, and that was all. We shook our heads as he went by.

Then just two days later, what seemed to be the same guy (probably not, the Tahoe is popular) thundered past while still on the on-ramp, straddling the line! I had to jerk to one side so I didn't get sideswiped. Jeez, people! If you're running late, don't blame me for driving my speed! Leave earlier, drive slower, arrive relaxed!

At least, that's what I shout at the windshield. But I don't go waving any fingers at anybody around here.
