Left Lane Drivers Should Lose Their License

Left Lane Drivers Drive My Blood Pressure!

Are all the drivers in this country living in Atlanta, GA? Or is there just a lot of SOBs driving in the left lane when they are not passing anyone? Every single day on my way to work my blood pressure goes through the roof because some self centered idiot feels it is his or her "right" to block traffic by driving the speed limit, or less, while driving the same speed or slower than the right hand lane traffic. This is dangerous for a couple of reasons, which follow:

1. This causes road rage leading to accidents. I admit it, I tailgate, then whip around on the right when it is safe, and then I usually flip the bird and cut the car off as I lunge desperately for the freedom of the left lane. And since this idiot has been blocking the left laners that are seeking freedom, I have an open lane... for about 10 seconds (it is Atlanta after all, now the worst daily compute in the US. Yep, even beating LA this year). Either I am going to cause an accident, or some Driving Miss Daisy driver will pull a gun and blow me away (it is Georgia after all).

2. I am going to have a heart attack, crash into other innocent driver that is frantically attempting to get around the left lane driver and causing a 40 car pile up on 400. All the while the left lane driver is totally oblivious to the mountain of metal spaghetti in the rear view mirror (because NO left lane driver has ever looked in the rear... or side view mirror. They should order their vehicles with no mirrors to save money.
