They want more than that. OP said 816 oz is too small, and that equals 51 lbs.

I literally said I slow down more lol, it’s not like I’m ever doing a “hard brake check”. I don’t do it in a malicious way, if they wanna pass they can pass. No need to assume I’m some child.

Unfortunately, there's no good way to get to or near Edgewater from Connecticut on mass transit. Edgewater isn't served by any train lines. Neither Amtrak nor Metro-North will get you very close.
That being said, if you really want to take transit as far as possible, you can pick up Metro-North at any stop on the New Haven Line. Many stations have free parking on the weekend. Which station is the best for you depends on where you are coming from. If you are near New Haven, West Haven and Milford both have free weekend parking. If you want to go during the week, parking will generally cost $5-$10.
Here are some options:
- Metro-North and Uber: Metro-North to Harlem-125 St. Take an Uber to the spa. This Uber ride will be at least $50 each way. Note that the ride could easily be over $100 if there is traffic or surge pricing.
- Metro-North and Bus: Metro-North to Grand Central, walk 15 minutes or take the Times Square shuttle train to the Port Authority. At Port Authority take a bus to Edgewater.
- Metro-North and Ferry (Weekdays only): Metro-North to Grand Central, walk or take a cab to the 39 St Ferry Terminal. Take an Uber or walk a mile to SoJo.

That’s moronic. You would still be dead in that scenario or at the very least in a serious crash. I’d rather been an adult and not die or have to deal with all the aftermath of a crash then to act like a 7 year old with poor social skills thinking being right is the most only thing that matters even though I put myself in danger or my car is wrecked. Check your ego and let the crazies pass.

Yeah rule of thumb if you’re not willing to go 80 plus don’t think about driving in the left lane

And these are the same people who will post in here about people driving slow in the left lane.

No, you're not alone, and that's completely normal. I know these things.

Happens to me all the time on rt 6. Speed limit is 50 for the most part and I typically drive 55-60 on it. Never fails that I eventually catch someone in a minivan, rav4, crv or Forester doing 40-45. So I give them at least a two second gap and just chill, nothing I can do about it. Then, inevitably, some jackass in a tinted out Accord/Maxima/Camry catches up and rides a few inches from my bumper, like I can do anything about the traffic in front of me. I've been tempted several times to toss a handful of pennies up and out my window... But I digress.
Tl;Dr: route 6 needs some slow vehicle lanes.

Hence the Dashcam. Can’t escape what’s clearly recorded 😏

If there were a lawsuit over an accident or other incident where your dash cam recorded something relevant, then yes, you could likely be forced to turn it over to the parties to the suit.
I don’t think people get dash cams planning to themselves be bad drivers. If you’re planning to break the law, it’s generally a bad idea to record yourself doing it.
And destroying the video could be a crime or sanctioned.
