Running out of patience.....

Why can't people drive? Why don't people care/know about road etiquette? People don't know or care what the left lane is for, don't care if traffic is moving faster then they are, and play wannabee cops? I am driving today and a minivan and PT Crusier are creating a road block and are going 10 under the speed limit while traffic is moving ahead of them at or above the speed limit. A space between them finally opens so I change lanes to get around the PT Cruiser and then as soon as I have enough room to get over, the PT Cruiser notices she broke the road block wall and speeds up to match the minivan again knowing I was trying to get around her....... I have noticed this more often down here in Daytona Beach, FL then my home state of MD. They are also suicidal. Going 45 MPH( the speed limit on one road here) and they dart out in front of me like they have a death wish.

We seriously need to reform drivers ed. No more "oh you know what road signs mean and can parallel park so here is your license".

Aeronautical Science?

And on an off note, finally( weather and mechanical issues withstanding) going up in the Seminole tomorrow after scheduling and sim malfunctions issues delayed me.

And on the DA42, POS thing isn't doing its Vmc demo correctly so it isn't being certified. I hope it is ready for me for instrument as I would not want to do instrument on the six pack.
