I'm not saying you're wrong, but I'd definitely like to see some literature on that.

people down here drive in the rain like people up north drive in the snow, I would hate to see it snow down here, cause they couldnt drive any slower... they'd be stopped.
I could have a fucking aneurysm on my way home from work over those fuckers in the left lane EVERY day.

Shit, like 2 weeks ago I saw some idiot going like 60 in a 65 and in the 3rd lane. Cop came up behind us and I got so exited that he was going to pull that MFer. The right lane was open and the cop sat behind him for like 2 miles waiting for him to get over. Finally the cop got in the right and went around him. I wanted to chase the cop down and bitch him out for that shit

Like 2 days later I saw some idiot that wouldn't even move after a "highway emergency assistance" car had been behind him for a mile or two with his lights on.

I think what gets me the most is seeing all the idiots that don't put there lights on when it's pouring down. Pisses me off 10x more when I flash them and they're still too stupid to put them on. Usually I just ride with my highs on when it's raining now (not when it's dark and I'm actually blinding people though, lol).

I swear sometimes I'm tempted to become a LEO so I can nail these stupid fucks.

I'm from FL and we do 80mph in the pouring rain all the time. This morning was insane with people doing 40mph and like 5mph in turns. I wish these idiots would just be too scared of the rain and not drive.

I'll see if there is a link somewhere, but the speed limit is the MAXIMUM speed allowed on that road. During inclement weather, I know first hand you can get stopped for speeding. maybe it is just at the officers discretion.


EDIT: When I say speeding here, I mean reaching the actual limit. And I think it is basically like, if your wipers are on, you shouldn't do the speed limit, slow down a bit.

You're right, you are supposed to decrease your speed in accordance with the weather and CAN get a ticket for driving "unsafely" in the weather.

What bugs me is that you can get a ticket for passing in the right hand lane. WTF are you supposed to do when someone refuses to get out of the left hand lane? My best friend is from Baltimore, and you'd think she could drive, but no, I can't even ride with her because she sits in the left hand lane and won't get out. She gets upset when people are tailgating her LOL.

+1 I love blowing past people in my truck, forcing them off the road as I spray gallons up on their windshield, to the point that the windshield wipers say fuck this and just stop flapping.
