I am legal beagle, you should be too…
One thing that really pisses me off, is when you are driving in stop-and-go traffic in the right lane, waiting to exit, and out of your passenger mirror you see a couple of cars approaching on the shoulder. Now, I’ll admit, I am that bitch that pulls halfway over while laughing on the inside as I see you get pissed because you can’t pass me. But, in my opinion, I have to wait, and sure, I’m probably running late to something important just like you, but that does not give you the right to pass me illegally, then cut off someone in front of me, making me now slam on my brakes… You not only chance getting a ticket (which I’m always hoping a cop is right there when you decide to go on this illegal escapade) but also, when you cut off everyone to cut in, you slow everyone else down. So now, not only am I going to be late because traffic, but also because you are too impatient to wait like the other thousand cars are. I find this disrespectful and just plain rude, so I choose to be rude right back. I love driving down the middle of both lanes, watching the person behind me swerve and ride my bumper… it makes me all happy inside… So, unless you are on the way to the hospital and there is a pregnant lady in the back of your car in labor… move the fuck back into the legal lane, quit being impatient and wait like the rest of the world, and if for some reason you can’t do this, fully expect that I will be in front of you, taking up your shoulder and I will even smile at you when you pass me later … : )

This is one of my #1 pet peeves. I can’t stand when some asshole tries to zoom by me on the shoulder while I’m waiting. It’s usually some guy in his BMW acting like he is better than everyone else. This is where my road rage comes from.

Your post is right on. And Topher is right; this is why road rage exists. Just to piss people off, I’ve been known to drive in the left lane, which is my legal right, and letting people pass me and blare their horns. LOL. Classic!
