For 12 miles we endured these slow speeds, stinky diesel fumes, and lethargic driving. Finally as we approached the last slow vehicle turnout(i'd call them a lane they are very long) and once again-no one pulled over-we used it ourselves to pass the group and sure enough, the fingers started flying and horns wailing...

People that rent RV's usually don't have a feel for the size of the thing, or its limitations. But somehow they do feel that they are the largest vehicle on the road and that makes them king. There should be a special licence for those things, including psycho tests.

Once someone was on my tail, flashing. I was doing 10-15 km/h over the speed limit, but he kept flashing, even though he had a lot of chances to pass. Finally I stopped in the middle of the road, thinking maybe there is something wrong with my car. I checked: lights are on, plates are there, nothing has fallen off, so I turn and ask him what is going on? Instead of answering he floors it and passes, barely missing me and almost getting into a head-on as he took off. I still have no idea what he was all about.
