NW Ohio Drivers

Have I mentioned I have a strong dislike like for NW Ohio and Michigan drivers? Because I do. I'm not saying that in southern Ohio we're as courteous as a Southern Belle, but we do have some consideration for others.

Here in corn country, it's an unwritten rule that you have to go a minimum of 10 over the speed limit. Now, generally I don't have a problem with that, but my car doesn't really have the ability to go 80 for 30+ miles, that and I enjoy not having any points on my license.

I know I drive a station wagon, that does not mean your (enter favorite SUV here) will fit in my trunkular area. I don't want to see you picking your nose and wiping it on your steering wheel. Also, it does nothing to try and hitch a ride from my car when the car/truck/semi that's in front of me isn't going as fast as you like or there's a row of 6 or so semis in the right lane, I can't really go anywhere. Especially since NW Ohio interstates are usually only 2 lanes. Assured clear distance is AT LEAST a car length, preferably 2-3, but if I drive like that the next thing happens.

DON'T CUT ME OFF! enough said.

Solid white lines mean don't change lanes, especially when they go around big long sharp corners in downtown Toledo. They also mean don't pass a semi or charter bus by driving in the accident/pull over/rumble strip area. That's just retarded.

Anyway, this is a short list, and all of the above happened to me today in the 30 mile drive I have from school to home.
