Things I hate about Driving:

There are two.

1) Cruise Control


Figure it out. There is no need to speed up, slow down, and pass me 8 times, only to get passed 9. You're an idiot. It is also a potential accident waiting to happen.

2) Slow driving in the passing lane. Why? That is a lane designed for you to pass in. If you are going 65 in the passing lane, you are going too slow. Move along to the right, especially if you are getting passed.

Other than those particular issues, the 27 hours in Madison were spectacular as always. The farmer's market provided delicious treats, specifically chili pork sticks, and some jalapeno muenster cheese for me, and a bunch of cheese for Julia as well. Got to see a lot of family, Dad was decidedly quiet, and Ella's Deli still has the best ice cream in America. (Sorry, Custard Cup).

Back to Madison on Memorial Day for the Half.

What bothers you on the road?
And what else am i missing in Madison?
Post your comments if you've got the time.

Drivers who try and "police" other drivers. That is just dangerous when people deliberately try and stop people from passing them; one just never knows why someone else is in a hurry - let them go by. Again, with the slow drivers in the left lane, even after they get passed numerous times; still hangin' out in the left lane. Side note, in Germany, it is known that you can flash your lights at someone in front of you and they'll get out of your way so you can pass them.

That's new, should we be worried about this? =p

I agree with those, but i can tell you what I am grateful for when driving...rumble strips. Those have saved my life a couple times.
