Hate to say this but if the posted speed limit is 55 then that is as fast as you should go. Pass a policeman just because he is doing speed limit you are asking to be arrested. You are wearing a big flashing sign that says arrest me. The passing lane is to go around those that are doing less than the posted speed limit. I once asked someone why they drive in the left hand lane that I was riding with and they were not the fastest but were doing more than the posted limit. Answer was it is the smoothest lane and therefor not as hard on their car. Personally I would like to see talking on cell phones made illegal, those idiots that go flying around someone and then slam on their brakes to turn when all they have saved is maybe 5 seconds and used up a portion of their brake pads trying to slow down so that they can turn. Speaking of turning what in the heck happened to proper signaling. People that slam on their brakes and turn on their turn signal when turning should be cited for improper turn.

My favorite thing is when you're going to get in the left lane to pass someone and the jackass you're getting ready to pass speeds up to keep up with you as you're trying to pass them. Hello dumbass!!! I'm trying to PASS you NOT race you!! The other thing I cannot stand is 90% of the morons that drive on 37 Southbound to Bloomington. If you're going to get that close let me get a tow rope and hook ya on to my bumper. Freakin' morons!! Oh, I HATE those people on 37 South...no concept of a speed limit...well moron, I'D be driving faster too, but the speed limit just happens to be 60 freakin' miles per hour, and we're all in the same boat, so just sit tight and get off of my ***...

I believe that cops are starting to take notice of all of those drivers going down 37. I have seen a lot more cops on that road lately. They are even out there when I am driving to go hunting which is about 4 in the morning.

What is the deal with all of the dumb-butts driving at or below the posted speed limit in the passing lanes now days??? Most of the time when this happens to me it involves residents of Ohio(the worst for this), Michigan(slightly better), Illinois, or someone trying to drive a Honda. I for one hate when cops do a block on 465 at rush hour, traffic is usually bad enough to start with without further conjesting things.

I would like to add certain residents of Bloomington to this list...
