exactly, the engineers should never have made a road with that big of a discrepancy between safe speed and listed speed limit

I disagree. There are two roads near me with a limit of 55 mph, and traffic on those roads regularly moves at 75-80. Driving 55 becomes dangerous when all of the other traffic is going so much faster, because nobody expects you to be that slow. You risk getting rear-ended, and if traffic is heavy, people who end up behind you now have to merge into a much faster lane of traffic to get around you.

I don't need to be right.

Fuck you Kevin you piece of shit.

going 70 in a 50

Both drivers deserve to lose their license

Exactly. You have no clue why they're speeding either. Sure it could be some a-hole, but it could also be someone with a medical situation, or someone that's about to poop their pants.

When I was younger I used to stay in the lane. Now I move over if it's safe, and let them pass. Not worth the chance of accidentally upsetting a psycho.

1. The phone is clearly mounted on the dashboard.

2. It's not uncommon for people to record their whole trip for social media, not just take to a picture.

3. This caption could have been pasted over a completely unrelated screenshot of someone else's video for all we know.

Don't touch your phone while driving, but also, don't believe everything you see on social media.

I have some great news for you. Look at what took effect yesterday in my state! Using a mobile device, including at a red light, is now a primary offense (you'll get pulled over for just that).

This just applies to PA, but it's a pretty big state with a population between Sweden and the Netherlands, so it's not nothing!

Driving is dangerous, and intentionally making it more dangerous deserves anger

I mean, the text say the guy honked for going "70 in a 50".

If you take it at face value, the person posting is the asshole and a terrible driver endangering everybody on the road.

Going 20 is the definition of "letting them pass". Or should she have ran off the road so the tailgating ahole could continue on going 90 in a 50 zone?

This.

Lived in Korea for awhile, and they generally seem to not have this kind of vindictiveness or self-righteousness. They're usually like, "I dunno. Either they got a reason, or it's not worth the effort for me to do something about it."

That said, social pressure is much more effective here, so the vast majority of people fall in line. See COVID

It's not just petty, it's safety.

You can't influence the size of the safety margin between you and the car behind you. But you can influence the speed at which the person behind you slams into you in case of an accident, by reducing the speed that both of you drive.

Oh yeah. At a stop sign or traffic light, slow traffic, kinda rested my arms on the wheel and hit the horn on accident. Felt like an ass.
