I was going to write a pretty long response to this but I figure I can just sum it up with, “This is a good thing” :)

Heh. Just don't let the car get above 4000 RPM; you'll be fine.

branwyn January 4 2006, 23:45:02 UTC

Yeah, I know. This is going to make me very, very sad.

Not as sad as having to drive way off to the right, with all of the old people, the driver's-ed drop-outs, the skittish paranoids who shouldn't be allowed to roll a shopping cart around much less drive on the 401, and people who drive cars which look and smell as though they can't possibly actually be moving at all, let alone the speed limit, which they've clearly re-built and repaired themselves from two "parts cars" of vastly different vintages which are rusting on their front lawn, with the help of a considerable amount of duct tape and several dozen extra-large black plastic tie-wraps.

it's not just the old people and drop outs that drive in the right lane. thats where I'm most of the time, either in my truck or in my car. I find that driving 110kpm is a good 'safe' speed, at least for me

branwyn January 5 2006, 03:38:06 UTC

No, I know it's not ONLY the rejects in the right hand lane. When I wrote this I was actually thinking more of the collectors on the 401, which I find much more dangerous to drive in because there seem to be a much larger percentage of people who, even if they are driving slower, are less in control of their vehicles... people who lane change without checking, who tailgate, who can't keep a steady speed, who drive right on the edge of their lane, or in two lanes... stuff like that. Those are the people I am not looking forward to driving around.

Not to worry kitty, whenever you feel the need for speed, just come for a ride with Fuzzy *evil grin* There shall be much rejoicing!

But seriously, you definitely want to be a good boy now, sucky as it is... you can do it for a year right? >;)

branwyn January 5 2006, 03:41:57 UTC

I had trouble doing it for a DAY. It's going to be a long year.

On the plus side, keeping an extra-wary eye on all the retardation going on around me in the Collector lane of the 401 really kept me on my toes, which should ward of sleep a little better than the smooth sailing of the Express lanes!

*eyes roll*
