+99.9% If they are doing the speed limit somewhere other than the interstate, I'm somewhat more tolerant/patient, but by and large I agree. Regardless of what speed such folks want to drive, they definitely have no business impeding others, even if others want to exceed the speed limit.

Why 99.9%? Because perhapse 0.01% of the time, the described situation is merely the result of circumstances at that moment. The rest of the time, those drivers are just being asses, particularly the self-absorbed, "omniscient," elected and appointed government types (foreign and domestic) in the DC area who make a living, for all intents and purposes, supposedly in the "best interest" of us idiots who put them there. When one makes a living telling the rest of us what to do, how to do it, when to do it and rarely, when at all, allowing individuals any say in the matter (95% of all laws are passed because business wants them passed), one becomes convinced that one must as a result always know what's right in any given situation.
