No ticket or written warning, just told me to yield to authority from now on.

It ticks me off to see them flying down the hiway at 80+mph for no reason with no response to calls so I didnt move.

Seeing them on Cell Phones in our state where driving with a cell phone is a ticketable offense is another one that bothers me.
I dunno, I find it's a good policy to not question the cops' authority when it comes to minor things like that. Save that for more important things like when they tazer 11 year old kids.

I had a cop do that to me once...but there were only 2 lanes

So as soon as I moved over he gunned it past me.

So, let me get this straight. You wouldn't pull over and were in the left lane.

Were you in the process of passing the car in the lane to your right, and would you have pulled over after you completed the pass?

Or, were you just hanging out in the left lane going the same speed as those to your right?

If the former, then I would have let the cop know I was passing and was going to pull over. If the latter, then I suppose you're one of the douchebags that thinks it's his right to be in the left lane even though the laws are specific that the left lane is only to be used for passing.

So which is it?

Oh, and this is a good opportunity to re-post the video I made on this subject.

Great video Steve Dallas,I feel the same way about the left lane.It really pisses me of when people don't abide by that.It happens all to often out here in Dallas,TX.I usually end up buzzing them and giving them the finger,the only problem is ,I don't think they understand why I'm doing it.

I saw that video earlier today, but it was named differently. Something like "Get in the slow lane, b!&*h!"

Why can't that happen here in CA? There's always somebody that's driving 60 MPH in the fast lane when the flow of traffic on all the other lanes is 75 MPH

No, but I'll check into that.

British Steel is an amazing album.

Pretty much every song on it kicks ass. United -might- be the weakest song on the album, but but it got a lot of radio play..

1, "Rapid Fire"
2. "Metal Gods"
3. "Breaking the Law"
4. "Grinder"
5. "United"
6. "You Don't Have to Be Old to Be Wise"
7. "Living After Midnight"
8. "The Rage"
9. "Steeler"

OK, cool, I know Breaking the Law and Living After Midnight (who doesn't) and Metal Gods.
Totally buying this one. All I have so far is Defenders of the Faith (my favourite) Screaming for Vengeance and Turbo.

Priest is awesome.

Cool. PM me after you discover that this is the best Priest album you've heard (at least, in my opinion). The Rage is also kickass!

Sin After Sin is another good one. Love Dissident Aggressor (plus Slayer covered it)



Unrelated note: The Bell Witch is a great Merciful Fate album.
