I mean what gives, I'm certainly NOT driving under the speed limit!
i feel ya. Atlanta drivers are kinda dumb. I always keep distance just so theres plenty of stopping room. People think that its an open invitation to jump in. Esp in the rain, i leave a good distance and people just weave in and out.

PRoblem with Atlanta. When it rains, they go slower, but because they are going slower they feel they can now be only 3 feet from your bumper. Thus, everytime it rains, at least 2 major highways are shut down from idiots wrecking.


But the thing that pisses me off the most is:

Im in the right lane, ready to take an exit theres a car thats about maybe 10 car lengths beheind in the lane to my left. And theres NO ONE behind me.

Apparently he needs to take same exit as me so instead of just getting in behind me, they accelerate and as soon as they barely pass my car they cut in front and then have to brake hard to grab the exit. wtf yo.
