I was just kidding VC.

No, I don't think I have driven in the Atlanta area. But I have driven in Chicago, Denver, St. Louis, Baltimore, etc. etc. I know exactly what you're talking about.

Heck there are times here in Iowa where you would be impeding traffic on the interstate if you are not doing at least 10 over.

(I'm a salesman so I have a lot of windshield time. Like VC, I fairly regularly have chats with the Highway Patrol, County Sheriffs, and the occasional city cop. I get very few tickets fortunately.)

I've driven in Atlanta, Chicago and Denver as well as a few you didn't mention. That includes Karachi, Pakistan, several cities in Japan and Pusan, Korea. If you haven't driven in Atlanta, I don't think you understand that it is in it's own class. There may be somewhere else like it, and if there is, I am not going.

With that said, it is really strange. Atlantans are such nice people when they are not behind a wheel.
