What I find funny is the complaints of slowing down from 140-120 for a minute. well passing. it cost them 0.3km.
Also people complain that slow cars cause issues, but it is the variation of speed on the road that causes issues. so on a fairly busy road if people are going a range of 100-140hm/h it is much less safe as say if everyone is going 110-120.
That being said when it is bad weather I see that range of speeds vary greatly. and it is usually not the slow cars that get into accidents that I have seen, its usually the fast cars that did something stupid getting around slow cars. for all the times I've seen this on the highway in my opinion, slow car are a pain, but usually the fast drivers are the do the idiotic things... usually they think they are above average drivers, but the stat is about 90% of people think they are above average drivers so really most people are wrong and over estimate their ability.
