I see a fair bit as well, but that does not include drivers who are exceeding a speed limit and otherwise driving perfectly. In fact, crap/unsafe/inconsiderate driving is done by relatively few people, it's just that you don't tend to notice all the ones who are driving normally (unless you're a car-hating troll who wants to find an excuse to criticise everyone who dares to drive anywhere near you).

You awful, awful man. Think how selfish you've been by wanting to get around, where and when you want to, at a speed above 20mph. No wonder the authorities need to keep making things difficult for motorists when people like you still insist on vrooming around everywhere, intimidating and endangering old ladies and children.

I certainly never said that. Though as above, nutters like Spindrift are constantly looking around trying to find fault with every driver.
