Why? If some is "barely going the speed limit" that means they are going as fast as the law allows. Why should the law abiding citizen get the ticket instead of the lawbreaker?

I drove up to Cades Cove today and from Townsend up I might have touched 20 MPH. I figured on an early Friday afternoon in February there wouldn't be much traffic, boy was I wrong. I swore people thought there was a bear at every turn the way they walked around them.
Anyhow I got my mountain fix in for the decade.

I got cussed out at a stop sign today. I just laughed at the moron, which pissed him off even more.

Near daily occurrence for me because I ride a bike everywhere. Some young girl yelled at me Wednesday night. Had to be maybe 17... I'm in IL, and I've heard TN treats cyclists pretty awful.

I don't mind cyclists, but when it's rush hour and people are trying to get home and a cyclist is on a two lane road holding up a hundred cars, pull over and let people by!

Around Gallatin we have some of the rudest cyclist around. Kinda satisfying when you here of one getting hit.

Unless the speeder is driving recklessly fast or fast and reckless, the guy driving slower than others in the left lane is the greater offender. The backed up traffic, with the accompanying over-braking, position jockeying, diminished gaps and increasingly frustrated drivers, are a way more dangerous result than a fast straight-line driver is likely to cause.

How do those people driving slow as dammit not know what is going on behind them and that they are backing up traffic?
