@gayemo you're driving under the speed limit in this image. others are not speeding. And since you understand the concept of rage baiting you understand that in doing so, you are doing that. even if the person you're doing it to was in the wrong originally, you're encouraging more unsafe driving as well as enabling the person in the left dangerously (often illegally) blocking traffic flow in the passing lane. And in doing so, risking the lives of everyone in the situation.

Everyone else sucks here, but you do too. Baiting everyone to make dangerous driving choices not to police speeding but, as you admit, for your own enjoyment, is, believe it or not, more dangerous than just about anything they were doing before, and you're lying if you say you wouldn't drive close enough to how they were in the situation that originally provoked you given the right circumstances.

#i say this as someone who used to do this as a teenager and gets where youre coming from #anyways... “u.s. incentivize public transit w infra investment‚ buyback programs‚ & more strictly enforcing whos allowed to drive” challeng #i think if we lived in a world where we taxed people who insisted on driving after offering buyback programs #and monitored and punitized what i call “dipshit driving”#AFTER building out reliable and all-encompassing public transit #the roads would be so much safer and the world a cleaner place #text #btw yes it is illegal in many states to stay in the left lane #and it is also illegal to ride under the speed limit but so much without hazards on
