[QUOTE="dru, post: 1771685, member: 3047"] I feel that it should be stated that this episode with capt. doosh occured on the stretch of I-35 between Austin and Waco....pretty much the whole way between those two cities. I would finally pass the idget and then after I had moved back into the middle lane, he would move back into the left lane. Apparently he just liked the left lane. but by that time I would be in front of him so I cared less about what lane he was in. We would continue in that configuration until I ran up on two cars, one in the middle lane, one in the left lane who would be pacing each other at which point I would work on passing the left one while he would go flying by on the right lane. Most of the time those drivers would do something (speed up and get out of the way, slow down and move over, something) At this point I would be behind le doosh again and the entire dance would repeat itself. unfortunately sometimes it would take 10-15 minutes of me blinking my brights at him before he finally deigned to move over. rinse, repeat ad infinitum Don't go laying all the blame at either the feet of cars or trucks. Both have their share of stupid. I've not yet had the "pleasure" of driving anywhere in California but I do go out to Washington DC on a fairly regular basis (inlaws live there) and i have the sad misfortune of experiencing the clusterfuuken that only I-95 in DC can bring. insane drivers, tons of congestion, smarmy entitled jackasses, and an absolute sense of superiority in driving ability such that they actually do try to multitask while driving. Like I said, I know I'm preaching to the choir here just something i needed to rant. [/QUOTE]
