Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's a speed limit, not a mandatory speed.
I also have to say that I was frequently tailgated, because I was going at the speed limit, when mostly everyone else went above.
Oh come on, we all know that it's an unwritten rule that you either drive exactly at the speed limit, or up to 9 MPH over, because no cop will pull you over unless you're egregiously speeding (because literally everybody speeds).
Don't be a fool who follows the law to the letter, rather than interpreting the intention of the law as you should, and also how judges and lawyers are trained. That's why we have judges and lawyers to begin with, because there is no one singular right way to interpret the law.
Don't know where you live, but in my state there is a law that states that you must go with the flow of traffic, regardless of the speed limit. Driving slower than the flow of traffic not only causes traffic jams, but also increases the chances of either getting into—or causing an accident. Your stubbornness causes more issues than it fixes.
You're talking to chronically online people, they have no concept of what normal conventions are.
They just see the rules as an excuse to be pedantic losers.
They know they're going slow in the left lane and enjoy being tailgated because they get off on being pedantic losers.
People who complain about tailgaters endlessly are always the shit drivers.
Fair enough, lol. It seems that our comments have triggered a few bad drivers, especially yours. But these people are wrong, and they need to realize that before they cause an accident.
Honestly I'm not trying to fix anyone and upsetting them is kind of the point.
I've always wanted to have all of the slow idiot drivers in one place so I can call them all slow idiot drivers and his thread has been deeply therapeutic for that.
The down votes don't bother me because I know it's the opinions of shitty drivers.
You're not a cop you have no authority to enforce the speed limit.
People are going to drive like this, it's your choice to sit in the way, pissing everyone including yourself off.
Ok.
