One of the guys came by at lunch today and said "I saw you at the tolls last night. Huge line of traffic held up in the left lane, so I pulled right and when I got to the front of it I saw your Subaru moving at a glacial pace!"

I just smiled and explained that I exceeded both the toll plaza's PSL and the toll booth's PSL. I asked him if I was really going so slowly, then why did it take him two miles past the tolls to catch up with me? He paused, said "I guess you weren't going that slow," and walked off.
