Coming home from a friends tonight. We have a few ways to go, so we decided to take the drive along the Delaware. Once we get there, it's about 12 miles, all double yellow, all 45 mph. I know the road well.

I get behind someone doing about 35-38 consistently. I wait patiently for a minute, get to a know straight area, no lights coming and pass them pretty quickly. Doing a reasonable speed of 60 or so, I quickly approach a row of cars...

The one in the front... is DOING 30 MPH!!!!

That's it. Have a good night.

The 14 mile drive to my Mother's has one passing zone of about 500 yards.
I understand your sentiments exactly.

I can't find the thread about Lainey's S and the check engine light, so just wondering - was it coil packs and is it fixed?

Mine is still in the shop. Suspect the evap system, so parts are ordered. Also, having the spark plugs replaced, as the mechanic says they looked pretty bad.

Hi Gene! Yes coils packs. One was bad, one throwing a code, replaced all four. Hopefully, we're all set now.

You had a lot of work done prior to your departure. Did the vehicle not need spark plugs then? Hope you get it back soon.

It probably did. I replaced them a couple years ago, so
