Traffic Tales Friday

I find it absolutely amusing, maybe even a bit irritating when I get behind a car moving 10 miles under the speed limit and making it impossible to pass.  As traffic builds behind us, I calculate the distance to the exit ramp and realize I have no time to go around. The minute the road opens after the merge into Ben White, the car then speeds up making it almost impossible to get around, again. I was following this Honda on South Mopac stuck in the exit- left -only lane for probably about a mile. I could not get around them because it's a one lane.  What's the obsession with wanting to be in the lead?  I have met a lot of people in my life like this as well. I don't think these "in the lead" people understand that just because they're in the front of the line doesn't mean people are following them.  I guess I was mostly irritated because I normally can drive to work on autopilot. The complacency is dangerous.
