People – what is your fucking problem driving in the morning? If we are on a two lane road – and by two lane, I mean one lane in each direction – and the POSTED speed limit is 45 MPH, do not drive 20 MPH. Esp. as there is no way to pass on this road due to the twisty, curvy, cliffy aspects of it. Bear in mind that I am driving a truck, I have not had any coffee, my marriage is coming apart at the seams AND I have PMS. I will ram your ass off the road.
Believe it.
There's a learning curve.

The Process 
Well, ya *know*, the speed limit is the maximum, not the minimum.
*ducks*
*runs away giggling*
Nuh-uh! That’s the minimum safe speed for that road. So says my driving instructor, Detective Loony McCracked. And iiiiiiiiiiiiiii believe him!
Dude, you should TOTALLY not be posting to lj while driving…oh what the hell, you can only do 20mph right now…post away. 😉
Heh. Apparently that’s what this guy was doing.
While I totally agree that its a gorgeous stretch of road, it is definitely not safe to stop or slow to a crawl to admire it.
The road I drive to work on twists through a little pocket valley over a piece of the lake. Because of the cooler weather, there is almost always a mist rising off the water. When the sun hits it as it peeks over the top of the hills, it turns into this floating golden haze. Its almost too beautiful to bear.
It was with that in mind that I didn’t tap this guy’s bumper on the way in. It woulda roont the mood.
I dunno, I kinda think it just would’ve added another layer to the beauty…
Tortured screams of metal rising through the mist? Nah, this is not a Geiger painting sort of scene. Had we been closer to downtown though, I probably would have strongly considered it.

I guess some people just don’t understand that speed limits are suggestions more than anything else.
XD
Who me?
No, the person in front of you.
=O
Well, he didn’t take suggestions very well.
I recommend firing him into the sun to teach him a lesson!
or something like that
Well, if you ever invent technology capable of doing so, please invite me to a demonstration!
You’re officially invited.
Although, its not the sun per se. Its more like a large bonfire.
I’m happy as long as there’s burning.
Ugh. I hate it when people will not at LEAST do the speed limit.
Same here. The road IS curvy but not overly so. 45 really is a slow speed for it.
