I've noticed there are 2 types of vehicles you don't want to be following.
One type is obvious -- the oversized SUV like an Excursion, Navigator, etc. Not only are they slow, but when you're behind a 4 wheeled homage to
Old Ironsides, you can't see anything but. Heck, you can hardly tell if it's
night or day, the view is blocked so completely.
The other vehicle you don't
want to follow is, curiously, on the opposite side of the political spectrum.
Economy cars with a bumper sticker that says "War is Not the Answer".
People who drive those cars just plod along, never in a hurry. You can't help but tailgate
them. It doesn't do any good though -- the closer you get, the more effectively
they're getting out the message. They're not gonna speed up or move over.
When you've got somewhere to go, "War is Not the Answer" is even more
unwelcome than "Student Driver".
There's no relief in sight -- as the country gets more politically polarized, traffic is just gonna get worse. :-)
