  Oregonians almost take pleasure in driving slowly in front of you. Maybe they’ve just gotten used to going slow because the entire state freeway system is always under construction. People driving crazily is infuriating for a completely different reason.

    Well I know in the states I mentioned “slow” means 80 mph in the left lane, if they’re going 65 or 70 it’s expected. The caveat being it’s lawful to let faster drivers pass, ie if you’re in the left lane and someone’s faster behind trying to pass, you move over if you can

      Yeah but I’m doing 64 in a 55, passing the person doing 58 in the right lane and someone comes up behind me doing 75, acting like I’m impeding the flow of traffic.

      It takes a little while to pass someone without wildly breaking the law.

        Oh not not breaking the speed law…

        Move the fuck over or don’t pass
