How about two Mr. Magoos driving side-by-side right in front of you, and neither will speed up, fall back or move over?

Well...I know this decal idea isn’t perfect.

Two or more Mr. Magoo drivers driving side-by-side is called commuter hell.

And believe me...I have seen them before down on the I-5 in San Diego. Some of the South of the Border commuters with BC plates frequently drive this way. Maybe because they are from Mexico, they drive excessively slow to avoid tickets.

We have plenty of those in Austin. I call them "Self appointed citizen traffic control officers". When you do get past them, over 50% of the time, both are on a stupid cell phone and have no idea they are holding up traffic.

What I love is the two big-rigs side by side doing a slow-race up a hill. Gawd I hate truck drivers. They self-righteously reserve the “right” to go 20 MPH or 100 MPH at their leisure. They’re happy to screw up everybody’s commute instead of staying in the right lane and losing 4 MPH up a hill. They preach about not passing on the right but they’ll do it all day long.

That's when I start fantasizing about retractable machineguns in the front fenders. There's a set of machinist's plans for a miniature Gatling Gun available online, you know. ;-)

Members of the Anti-Destination League, no doubt!

But seriously, folks; on the highway I like to stay in cruise control whenever possible, and allow myself plenty of time to set up a pass. When I'm in the right lane and see I'm closing on a line of slower traffic I get out into the passing lane and override cruise enough to pass safely. But I am NOT going to speed up to 85 just because some clown wants to drive up my butt! I'll finish my pass normally then pull back in whether he likes it or not.
