Drivers who slow down 20+ MPH when it starts raining and then turn on their flashers as if no one can see them

Older driver who IMMEDIATELY have to race into the left lane in order to barely do the speed limit.

Do you think that about ALL of them though? I have a 100 mile a day commute, all highway. I do think many are just being jerks but I also think that most people are SHEEP. I think some don't even realize they are speeding up.

After driving 500 miles a week for 13 years on the exact same route it seems like some drivers operate more like a flock of birds. They just travel at whatever speed the other drivers are going, they don't think for themselves.

Kelly didn't you say this word? Sheple?

Does that mean you can't figure out a rebuttal?

Yeah I know, people say talking on a cellphone is more "distracting" than talking to a passenger, but I don't buy it at all.

This is funny too and it's happened to me more than once all while I'm running my cruise control which works just fine as far as I can tell.

I pass the sheple and they are behind me. They speed up and pass me. They slow down and I end up passing them again..

Last time it was a guy in a Civic (yes a clue, ha ha) and you could tell by the way he jerked back into the slow lane in front of me the second time he was pissed. So he thought I was being the jerk but my speed didn't change the whole time. Idiot Sheple!!

sometimes the cruise doesn't work that well
Dad and I driving, he was following me, both cruise control set at the same speed. He said he would often have to slow down as my speed would vary 5 mph or so.
And this is in straight flat ND!
