Hiya

I was driving at 55 in the no 2 lane from the right (traffic keeps coming into the right lane at 50, even 30 here. i dont wanna keep slowing down) when this 18 wheeler came bearing down at high speed and stopped a few feet from my car, and turned on his lights. Since it was the day I just flipped the mirror and continued. Mr. Trucker then tailgates me. I got MAD. thinking "speed limit in DC beltway is 55! so im doing the right thing!" Mr trucker realizes the futility of this and gets into the no 3 lane (second lane from left).

When I realized that Mr trucker is not going over 62 (a speed governor on his truck?), it was time for REVENGE! I kept pace with him so he could not come back in. He went back to 55, even to 50 then suddenly hit the gas to get to 62 but I kept pace. When my anger evaporated i realized that there was a huge line behind us in the no 2 and no 3 lanes. Wow.. finally people are going close to the speed limit. I boxed the truck into the left lane for ten miles. He stuck to 60 and so did I. I ignored his turning signals and honks.

I wonder how many lives I saved since SPEED KILLS and I prevented many cars from exceeding 60 mph.
