stupid old driver in a Lincoln

I was on a back road down by my finacee's house. I was following this Lincoln maybe 2-3 miles. I knew my turn was coming up so I'm thinking I'll just follow him and not worry about passing him because he's doing 40-50 mph.(normally on those back roads we do 70 mph). Grant it I am on his rear bumper but if you do 40 mph what do you expect?
So he turn where I turn . I'm thinking dammit.
and this is a curvy road. and I think I could have walked through the curves faster than he drove. so he go up near the railroad tracks and pulled over. THEN THE IDIOT (this guy will make you laugh) thinks he has like a WRX or a Evo. He floors it behind me(he's on my tail) I drive autocross. So I said okay if grandpa wants some in his gay Continental I'll give him some. I do like 55-60 it's rated at 35 mph through .this one pretty sharp corner. my car sticked no problem. he tries it and dead serious HE DRIFTED HIS CONTINENAL. IT WAS AWESOME. then he backed off.then he was honking and raising hell.

Why is it that people are always getting mad at YOU on the roads. Maybe its you and not them?

I always slow down more if some prick behind me is riding my ass. You think im gonna haul ass on public roads because you dont like the speed im going? No thanks.

I agree as long as I'm not going under the posted speed limit. Following someone who doesn't know how to read the speed limit is extremely frustrating.

I liked that sentence the best.


But really im not a slow driver, most of the time im already going 5-10mph over the limit. Hell if there are two lanes then i dont mind moving over once i get a chance.
If we are on a one way road and you are on my ass, then tough shit for you being there. Not my problem.

the thing is I understand if you you want to run the speed limit for that zone is 55 mph. I'll run 55. however when you run 45-50 mph and have hills and curves you can't pass it's bull sh!t to run that slow. everyone else(that isn't 70 years old) runs 60 -70 mph and it's fine.
I drive fine with most people it's just old timers.
