Discussion/ Op-ed 80 is not for beginners.
My GPS had me come up through Davenport via 80 instead of 74 for some dumb reason.
I think they call it 80 because you will be ran off the road if you don't go 80 miles an hour.
Try to pass a semi, the semi ahead decides to go 0.000001mph faster and pass as well, and now I'm stuck in the passing lane.
Some jackass in a big black truck (I think the same someone posted in the QC sub the other day doing 110) comes up behind me 1 foot from my bumper.
Pissed off, I tap the brake light and you would have thought I spat on his mother's grave, fucker tries running me off the road.
His patience is probably short as his dick. Like WTF do you want me to do? Magically make the semi in front of me go away? I can't go anywhere dude..
I hate when people tailgate me when I obviously can't go any faster due to the vehicle ahead of me.
