You are unpolite by driving slowly without letting people pass, it's normal to get the same lack of politeness from the guy behind you. And the top drivers at work (food delivery, in yarises) are always making 40-80% more orders than some other drivers, so driving quickly isn't just a matter of seconds, but a matter of minutes which makes me gain maybe 1-2k$ extra at the end of the year. And I'm not more dangerous than anyone, I have never been close to have a responsible accident implying other cars, or at least not due to the non respect of the law. Driving fast = more focused, less distracted, less small accidents due to a lack of attention on the road. And driving slow is boring, going fast and trying to make a way through the traffic is part of the game and the excitement, and that's whate make driving supportable. Otherwise, I'd hate driving and I'd rather take the bus (which I do when it's not much longer than car). The yaris is a great car to drive quick around town, it takes sharp turns and it makes U-turns so easilly. Last edited by broody; 03-20-2012 at 02:31 AM. |

If you get followed, it's because you didn't let the people pass. Unless the guy following is really dumb and is staying behind you on a 2+ lanes road.

Again, you are assuming that on a one lane road, the person can always pull over. Why? didn't say what kind of road he was driving on.

The rest of the world and other drivers aren't around to mold to the compensation structure of your company. If you are going to fast and a cop pulls you over, you will usually get a ticket. He/she is not going to care that your habits increase your pay. "..driving slow is boring.....game and excitement.....otherwise I'd hate driving" - Immaturity, plain and simple. Never been close to having an accident where you were responsible? - In your opinion. I wonder if other drivers who have shared the road with you would agree. |
