It’s nice driving along and seeing woods and animals and not the 100th strip mall/plaza/condos.

Most of the more populated areas in this country are just disgusting urban sprawl with countless banal stores and bland fast food chains.

I don’t consider progress to be cleaning woods for another dollar general.

There is 100% two different Maines. There is southern Maine which is very developed and very expensive. The other 3/4’s of Maine is very rural and very poor.

Most of the rural towns had a paper mill as the main employer. The vast majority have shut down leaving ghost towns. Some are rebounding slightly, but still a long way to go.

How about, it’s none of your business as to the reason for my haste? I could be heading to the hospital to see a dying relative, rushing a child to the hospital or even about to shit my pants.

Regardless of the situation, if someone is in that much of a hurry, let them by. You going slowly is not a moral/ethical win.

Drive as slowly or as quickly as you feel comfortable with. BUT! Get the fuck out of the way for others. It’s not your job to be the traffic police.

Also, for anyone who needs to be told, get out of the left lane!

I think having a clean record, showing up and being respectful will go a long ways in having that not happen.

Worse comes to worse I think it’s only a 30 day suspension.
