Please move to the right if you have people behind you! I have a sniglet for people who drive in the left lane(s) oblivious of others: An Oblivinoid - the guy in the left lane going 40 in a 55 next to a semi going 40 completely oblivious of 20 cars behind him slamming on their brakes. Also refers to the geek who changes into the left lane without noticing the guy doing 80 that had to slam on the brakes. (A sniglet is from the HBO series Not Necessarily The News, and refers to words that *should* be in the dictionary.) I also wish the highway patrol would spend more time ticketing those who drive dangerously (like oblivinoids), instead of generating revenue with a Kustom KR10. As I understand it, California (CHiPs) do just that. They cruise all the time, and do not waste time with radar.
