Wow... if only Alberta would get that memo.

So tired of having a wall of cars driving 10km/h under the speedlimit at all times. Seriously, if you are driving as fast as the car next to you... MOVE OVER. Left lane is for fast.

Yeah, Utah said they were going to do that as well. It lasted about 2 days. I know I get a little aggressive at times when I come up on someone in the left lane doing under the speed limit. :oops:

I just get mad at people's bullshit moves on the road. I don't care too much about how FAST people drive unless it's causing a significant slow down in traffic flow.

Vancouver is NOTORIOUS for running lights, especially for left turns cause it's too busy to go during green. This however leads to assholes being stuck in the intersection, blocking traffic for everyone. This happens quite a bit.

Also, people switch lanes too much. Pick a fucking lane and stick with it you fickle bastards! And use your damn blinker next time. I find I have to pay a little too much attention to the cars around me because I get that feeling that some douche is going to switch lanes, sans-blinker right in front of me.

My biggest asshole moves are twice now I've not noticed the tiny little car beside/behind me when I wanted to switch lanes. I've never hit anyone but both incidences had the other driver using their horn... which is what it's for, so I can't complain :D

Its law in Ontario but its also a crock of shit. NOBODY ever gets charged with it.

fuzzysnuggleduck - I lived in Vancouver for a while. I quickly learned to look both ways before proceeding on a green. Odds are, some jerkoff was running the light. I hated driving there, worst drivers in all of Canada and I've driven ever province from coast to coast.
