This thread just made me think of my pet peeve when driving -
BRIDGES!
There's one here that's particularly bad for this. Usually this is how it happens - I'll be in the slow lane, with the cruise on, at 55 MPH being passed by EVERYTHING in sight. As soon as the roadway starts to climb to the top of the bridge, a few people start to slow down, and when the bridge narrows (It doesn't have emergency lanes but the driving lanes are full sized), I'm still in the passing lane, doing 55 MPH, and passing EVERYONE - then when the road lowers again, they all pass me again.
I don't know what it is, something about being high in the air makes people drive slower. Drives me crazy!
