Ha! I wish there was less variation on my commute. I go through 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 and 110kph speed limits during the 52Km drive to work.


My point was that by driving "slow" at 95kph on a 110kph motorway/freeway/expressway (about 20Km of my commute), I (as a responsible hypermiler) believe I disrupt traffic flow less than other legitimate road users.

That I disrupt traffic flow less than the ratbag drivers who don't think rules apply to them and endanger others by driving irresponsibly (too slow in the fast lane, too fast in any lane, on their mobile phone, etc, etc) should go without saying.
..... and the comparison got up my nose a bit.
