By the way, for someone who was in law enforcement, you seem to care little about speed limits and why they exist in the first place.

Contrary to popular belief, I was never a speed nazi. It is called officer discretion and I am free to use it. You have to be reckless or talk yourself into a ticket with some LEOs, and esp. this former LEO. I'd prefer a safe driver going over the speed limit, rather than some "do-gooder" going EXACTLY the speed limit, forcing people to do unsafe things like pass on the right or tailgate.

Also, your examples like the woman in labor, etc., are not what I’m talking about.

Are you telling me you can interpret people's intentions through your rear view mirror?! Wow!

I’m referring to drivers who exceed the speed limit routinely. I’m not trying to enforce the law, but I do insist that tailgating is foolish and dangerous when someone in the left lane is merely waiting for a SAFE opportunity to reenter the right lane and let the fool by.
Wow...not only can you interpret their intentions, you can judge their character! Perhaps you should run for a political office. You'd be a perfect bureaucrat FRiend ;)

Yeah, I’m pretty good at sizing them up.
