In the short term, this only seems to make sense, but rather, I expect in the longer term, it will be ANY manual control of our car that will be banned. We will all be in Google cars before we know it, and the idea of any simple citizen operating such a dangerous machine will not be allowed.

If you guys want to try something fun, sometime, give this a shot...
a few weeks ago I pulled in front of some SONIC like following distance, side by side driving dude in a Benz. Benz had the Adaptive Cruise Control on, I'm guessing on the maximum following distance.
So the fun part.... I finally get the gap to cut this fool off, and as soon as my back bumper starts to enter his lane, probably about 10 feet infront of his car, the computer HAMMERED THE BRAKES!!!! It was so hard it looked like he was braking for the first corner at Monza. Then it let off and just started cruising the same gap again. Damn near crashed his car I think, it was too hilarious. Dude came back up beside me all ******. I got a real hard chuckle at that.
So yeah, cut off those fancy cars everybody
lmfao I didn't know that technology was still being used after the Ford and Volvo accidents
Yeah, have you seen Finnish or German training school? It's more technical than the advanced driving courses offered here but also pricey as hell.

If you leave a gap you're an idiot and the guy behind you will want you dead. Even tho the next time traffic slows the gap will close and it doesn't affect him at all in the end, he still wants you dead. At that point in time you are the single worst human being alive. He could be two seconds closer to home and you're robbing him of that. You deserve to die.

Oh, that doesn't sound good!! Maybe everybody should smoke pot on the way home. Buddy at work highly recommends it.
If pot was the only substance left on earth to indulge in, and everyone smoked it, the bigger problem would be traffic jams caused by friendly drivers trying to offer eachother the right of way.

Driving frustration is cumulative over a trip. Little stupidities of other drivers add up and build upon the frustration of simply being in traffic. One more perceived little stupidity can put one over the edge of rationality.
From north of Stouffville, I just came back from a foray into Markham (McCowan and Highway 7) and the pressure inside me built up, I can tell you. For example, the intersection resurfacing at McCowan and 16th Ave. with its 3 inch lowered level of grooved pavement, created a major obstacle to drivers who needed to slow down to 5 kph to traverse that dangerous stretch. That 3 inch drop and then rise was scary!

Thanking you kindly! FYI, some posts are serious, some are not. One up above was serious. Case in point: Early in my pot career buddy and I got stoned in the park. On the way home I said to him "you realize we're only going 5mph right?" Then we laughed uncontrollably. Of course the appropriate adjustments have been made.

Also, global food shortage right after rush hour...
So the op was is the passing lane keeping up with traffic. Except the road rager passed him. The op didn't say which side he was passed on and if he had been passed on the left shoulder I think he would have noted it as that sort of behaviour is notable. If he was passed on the right then traffic on the right was gong faster/op was being a left lane bandit. I suspect the op won't post the video because it damages his position further.
Well in his place I'll happily post one of myself, in a similar situation. I pulled into the fast lane to pass a couple of cars and then, when I signalled that I was going to move back to the centre lane and shoulder checked, I found a truck's bumper no more than six inches from my foot.

Is that not acceptable by the OPP for dangerous driving?
See that video shows YOU doing nothing wrong, the op hasn't shown as such
oh come on....he left a good 4 inches there....
Is that Alberta or American?
Guy sure is in a hurry to get to work, maybe he repairs the air conditioners at strip joints.

You're doing the same. Post the damn video.
Yes, there is no other conceivable answer as to how this other driver could have gotten around me, unless I was being a left lane bandit, yup, no ifs ands or buts about it. Are you a crime scene investigator?
No, I'm not posting the video. In case you haven't figured it out, I could care less what people think. I just asked a question, 9 pages later and some are still blabbering.
