Will the steering wheel only turn every 30 miles or so? What is the fetish
with driving in the left-hand lane, which I learned in this century was for
passing, not for those planning on driving a long way. If you ain't in a
hurry, get in the slow lane. There you can travel at leisure, and let us
with more testosterone and better eyes blow on through!! Besides, we set off
all the speed traps for you guys!!

You know when I am going 5 miles over the speed limit, and plan to
travel 30 or more miles, I move to the far left lane to avoid the
merging traffic at the right where most of the on ramps are.
When I learned to drive last century, the teaching was that the left
lane was essentially an express lane to travel through on, not an
unlimited speed autobohn lane.
I know it drives the young guys with more testosterone than brain
cells crazy to travel at only 5 miles over the speed limit, but at
my
advanced age, it seems fast enough to me.
Luckily, as my eyesight fails, I don't really see the headlights
flashing anymore.

I agree with you on the death penalty for idiot drivers, we may
disagree on who the idiots are.
