what the hell! do they not have common sence, i can't believe these people. they all drive 5-10 mph under the limit, which is by all means ok but they do it in the passing lane. any time there is any kind of sign, construction, a butterfly, anything they slow down and every one of them has to look at it. 15 miles of rubbernecks!
there has been allot of construction in this area, but none of it really affects the traffic flow. they may take one lane out but they put in concrete dividers to help guide traffic and protect the workers. if they all just kept on driving down the freeway there would be only minor conjestion for about half a mile. but they all have to stop and check it out. once they are done creeping by, they all haul ass to the next thing that catches thier attention.
i have driven in allot of "rush hour" traffic when i lived around portland,or. and boise,id. traffic was always flowing at a decent rate unless the contruction had to stop traffic completly. they all knew there was work going on and that was enough, they didn't have to sit and stare at the trackhoe, they just kept moving along at the POSTED speed.
i don't understand why they have to stop and look at everything, don't they want to go home? that could be one of my many problems i am in the millitary and when i get time off it is incredibly important to me. i don't sleep i just keep doing what ever i can till i have to go back to work, otherwise i feel like i wasted my time. this is the only state that i have seen this happen in. i know i'm not the only one that see's this or feels this way about it. and yes i probably am "THAT GUY".
