I suspect that most speeding has nothing to do with being late, but with people being impatient and nasty

I don't speed much, but I take off fast and try to have an open lane at a light. Am I an asshole? I drive like one sure. I'm tired of getting behind someone that will no doubt be on their phone when the light turns green and sit there until I honk. I'm tired of the guy that takes half a mile to get up to 35mph because he doesn't feel it's necessary to hit the gas pedal. I'm tired of the people who want to slow down a half mile from their light when I just want to make the turn light that I can't because we're going 25 mph in a 55. I've logged over a million miles, I'm over dealing with idiots on the road and it just keeps getting worse.
