I tend to drive very conservatively when it comes to acceleration. I have a hybrid and I love getting 50-60mpg, plus I find that my slow acceleration often makes it so I don’t get caught at red lights; all the while people who punch it end up hurrying up only to wait.
So and way, had a guy in an F150 passing me pretty aggressively recently, but as he does so I hear a scraping and banging sound. I look left to see his kayak skidding down the road next to me.
I’m better at going than the person ahead of me at the light, I want to go first so I’m not stuck behind grandma as she swerves down the road 10 miles under the speed limit
I mean, it’s dangerous, but wrt driving 10mph: the lights are usually synced, so if you’re consistently slow you’re going to run into more red lights where you could’ve made it through by a wide margin if you were going 20. It’s also not just you and another car on the road. It’s going to effect the cars all the way back through the line not to mention the dangerous swerving from everyone else who needs to get to work by 7 or be subject to their boss’s narcissistic tirade.
Sightly related to the road rage stuff.

Whenever I see someone speed around other cars I think,
Damn, he gets to stop at the light first
I’m better at going than the person ahead of me at the light, I want to go first so I’m not stuck behind grandma as she swerves down the road 10 miles under the speed limit
Damn, you get to stop at the light first.
Yeah, that’s what I said!
