My recent travels
I recently made 2 trips back home. I noticed something during my travels: people drive crazy these days.
I have always set my cruise control at 2 miles per hour over the speed limit – sometimes 3 (on accident). For the past 3 years I have been the fastest thing on the road, whizzing past semis and sports cars. But in the 2 trips I’ve taken since gasoline prices were cut in 1/3, I ceased being the fastest, craziest driver.
Has anyone else out there seen a change in the way others drive compared to before the drop in gasoline prices?

On my traveling over Thanksgiving I was driving 75 in a 65 zone just to feel like I was actually moving in comparison to the other traffic. I was still one of the slowest cars on the road but it didn’t feel as bad because I was able to identify types of cars as they flew by me (one was a county sheriff with his lights off).
