I can't count the number of times I've seen 6-20 cars and trucks stuck behind one self centered old rv driver who thinks everyone else is driving to fast.
A few points about your post, MR Redwood,
Number 1, "Old RV driver": At one time, the elderly had our respect. Respect of the elderly is an admirable quality. Far too many would just cast aside those who are older than thee. It would be a sad case indeed, if more folks felt like you do.
Number 2, "Self Centered": Very close to judging another person. None of us has the "right" to judge another.
Number 3, You indicated that this old RV driver was driving too slow. Perhaps a more appropriate consideration would be that this driver is driving at the safe and reasonable speed that is prudent to him / her.
Number 4, Your complete message goes to the fact that your patience in this example is missing. Why are so many folks today so angry and unwilling to accept others as they are, in this case, driving a little slower than what you judge is best?
Number 5, "I can't count the number of times I have seen 6 - 20 cars & trucks". Maybe one should take an honest look at one's own driving habits. If I was continually coming up on a line of drivers and needing to pass, just maybe there could be an issue with my own driving if I am continually in the position of having to pass everyone else.
Take a break, smell the roses, look and see this beautiful country around you. Enjoy the differences of the people around you. I guarantee that the few extra minutes it takes you to get where you are going will result in you feeling less stress once you get there.
Safe travels Mr Redwood.
