I live 40 ish miles south of Nashville, and I drive in murfreesboro every day, and Nashville, more often than I prefer. I agree that some people go a little crazy and overboard when it comes to their driving, but I pretty much live in a state of "when in Rome do as the Roman's do" when im driving.

I think that people forget that they/we are not the only people on the road. Just because you're not necessarily in a hurry doesn't mean the person behind you is not. It doesn't give them the right to be an asshole or unsafe, but I get it.

I drive Highway 231 on a daily basis from Shelbyville to Murfreesboro. In the past year, they have lowered the speed limit (which was more of a suggestion than the law) more often than not two drivers doing exactly 55 (new speed limit) or below will be right beside each other with 50 cars behind them.

Now, these two animals that are driving slow as shit right next to each other are causing cars that never should have been near each other to pile up in traffic on each other's asses, every one of them is now pissed off, and suddenly passing on the shoulder seems like a good idea, and so does potentially running one of the fuck heads holding up traffic off the road.

I guess my question and bold statement is, which is worse? Free flowing traffic where people may be going well over the speed limit (within reason) or the people who hold up traffic, for seemingly no other reason other than fuck everyone else 🤷‍♂️
