Please. Please god. This would be the actual funniest shit. I had a man wave a damn gun at me for doing the speed limit in the left lane... on a residential road. I am so sick of these entitled assholes. Ford, please, its the only thing I want for christmas, please please make their douchey trucks fink on them. I've been so good this year.
I mean, if you're not passing in the left lane…
I kid, i kid, I've been on those residential two lane roads. The number of people that think highway guidelines apply on a residential road are mind-blowing. Like, I'm in this lane because I'm turning left in a mile and trying to merge a full-size work van with medium traffic congestion is a challenge already. I'm sorry I kept you from driving your Mazda like a Maserati

Hmm, perhaps this is the issue with our car-centric society and it won't actually be solved with big-brother surveillence.
Yeah, why were you in the left lane? Slower vehicles keep to the right, jackass
I was going to turn left.
Yeah let's fuck it up for everyone because it would amuse you. I wonder why we can't have nice things? 🤔
... Speeding is what you consider a "nice thing"?
Driving fast can be enjoyable, ask a professional or even an amateur racer, but that's not what I'm saying. A legally mandated limiter is going to cost drivers money to have it installed on cars that don't have it. Governments aren't going to pay to have it retro installed. Or if they did, there are better things to prioritize first. It's also going to cause an increase in the price of new cars as well (because any reason to jack the price) though I suspect retro fitting is more expensive.
People doing 90 in a 30 or drag racing down a street, rollin coal, etc etc - totally disagree with that sort of thing, I just don't think punishing everyone else is the way to stop that issue. A fair and just legal/justice system that isn't hobbled by bullshit partisan politics and lobbying would do wonders.
