独一无二, 无尽的爱

I have recently acquired a new pet peeve. I take the motorway to go to work and get back home everyday. Here, in our small island, the speed limit is a mere 90km/hr. Which is easily exceeded by most cars and lorries on the road.

Many drivers consider themselves to be an ace behind the wheel and are loath to give way. And patience is sometimes tested to its limit during traffic.

My pet peeve is the drivers who stick to the right (fast) lane while doing a mere 70-75km/hr. And flashing them is of no use. Come on, let others go through (and drive to their death?). I accept that sometimes a relatively slow vehicle will be overtaking a more slow vehicle, and will hold the fast lane for a while. I also understand if there is a fast approaching turnaround and you need to turn right, you will keep the right. But otherwise it’s plain bad manners to stay in the fast lane doing 70 when the left side of the motorway is free and no close, slow vehicles in front of you.

I’ve overtaken on the left a couple of times although I really hate doing that. But it looks like things ain’t going to get any better soon. Oh oh, time for me to drive home again. Ciao.
