Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Driving when you're old must be wonderful. They can't hear when people honk and can't see their finger. They must smile and imagine the frustration of all those impatient drivers.
6·25 days agoPeople do not like hearing this though. They feel like they’re getting there much faster.
I do just a little above the speed limit because my car lies to me about how fast I’m going.
However, almost daily, I have people that want to do 20 mph over the limit who pass me illegally in the opposing lane. Invariably, I catch up to them at the next 4-way stop sign or traffic light or when they get stuck behind the next tractor-trailer. We arrive at the same time.
I used to be them.
I did the math.
I slowed down.
I’m much happier during my drives.
No stress.
