    I used to have pretty bad road rage. Eventually decided I didn’t want to be like that, and started driving the posted limit. Instant relief from stress and I enjoy driving now.

    When driving is an activity to make up for constantly being late, you end up like the crazy tailgater. When you abide by limits, you end up like the person in front.

      I’m my younger years, I got 3 $300+ speeding tickets in just under a year (speeding in Cali is an expensive lesson). This pretty much stopped my speeding habits. I use my cruise control constantly. It works down to 16mph in my car, so even in school zones. I fucking love it so much. Huge reduction in stress and anxiety.

      And before anyone asks, I’m not the holier-than-thou asshole doing the speed limit in the fast lane. I stick to the right lane, move over to pass when I need to, and then move back.
