You’re right. Fuck the speed limit, I drive however I want. Speed limit 60? I drive 60 in the left lane where everyone else drives 80. The safest.

Better yet, since my car is old and I don’t maintain it, I will drive 50 on the highway in the middle lane so everyone has to drive around me.

Who gives a shit about other people anyways. Them driving faster than me is a problem but not the other way around.

Safest speed is maintaining the same speed as the traffic around you.

Deliberately driving at a faster or slower speed than traffic for no good reason is the definition of unsafe driving. Please surrender your driver's license before you kill someone with that attitude.

I don’t think they are being serious, they are playing the role of an inconsiderate person.
If it was sarcasm, well, sarcasm travels through the intertubez very poorly. :V

My sentiment remains nonetheless: Anyone who deliberately breaks the flow of traffic for no good reason is a danger to other drivers.
