Fuck you, road "enforcer", unofficial regulators of the road.

What is the deal with these people that think that they are the unofficial regulators of the road ways? I know you have experienced one of these people. The ones that sit, usually in the fast lane, and drive exactly the speed limit, thinking that they are making the roads safer by "regulating" the entire interstate by slowing everyone down to the posted speed limit. Listen here dipshit! They already have people that fulfill this function, they are call the "Highway Patrol"! You might recognize them with the marked cars with said name on the side and also the light bar on top that flash the cherries and blueberries.
When you decide to enforce your rules on other people when it's not your place it not only pisses everyone off, it is also increases the probability of causing a traffic accident. Let me elaborate; First off, no one like to be told what to do or to be controlled in any fashion. When you prevent someone from doing something, even if they don't really care in the first place, there is a immediate desire to do whatever they are told not to do. This is something that is learned and expressed in childhood and is carried over into our adult lives. Case in point, Mr. "enforcer" forces people to go slow and tries everything they can to not let people pass and go faster then they are. Even if you really don't have the desire to drive faster, you do have the desire to have to freedom to do it if you want to.
Mr "road regulator", when you have angry folks about 3 inches from your bumper getting more pissed off by the minute, with angry people 3 inches from their bumper, followed by... you get what I am saying... this can cause a huge pile up if one person makes a bad move. Also, whenever there is a small gap anywhere to get around you, angry people make dangerous maneuvers to just get past you, this also can cause a pileup. And for what, does this make you feel good to control something or someone? Let do everyone a favor and leave the Hwy Patrol to regulate the road ways. Get out of the passing lane, which is illigal in the first place to drive in and not just pass, and let people by. This will create less of a headache for everyone involved and also make the road safer for everyone.
