What Type of Driver Are You?

In order to master the open road, you must first be able to honestly identify yourself as one of three types of driver...see below and decide which category you fall under.

1. Aggressive Driver- this is the type of driver who feels he owns the road. Speed limits don’t mean much to this type of driver. This is not to say that this driver always drives in excess of the speed limit; but this driver always feels a sense of urgency, and coasting along just doesn’t cut it. Cruising in one lane is unheard of. This driver bobs and weaves in and out of traffic, and does whatever it takes to get to his destination in the best possible time.

2. Relaxed Driver- this is the driver who does not have too many cares in the world. He is content with going no more than 5 miles above the speed limit. Regardless of how the traffic is moving, this driver is rarely looking to lane jump and seldom expresses anger towards other drivers. This driver’s prerogative is safety first; chances are if most people out there drove as this driver did there’d be fewer accidents.

3. Right Lane Driver- now we come to the worst of the three; the best possible solution for this type of driver can be summed up with two words: public transportation. These are the drivers who completely obey traffic laws to the tee; they will not drive a single mph over the speed limit, switch lanes during rush hour, or show any aggression. These drivers can also be found being overly cautious, pushing the brake every 10 seconds regardless of whether or not there is a car in front of them. Ultimately there is no use for these kinds of drivers on the road; they take up space and create traffic. Sadly the typical stereotypes for right lane drivers are old people. This is true to some degree, but I have witnessed right lane drivers of all age, so I shall not discriminate. Worst of all with right lane drivers is that they rarely can be found in the right lane.

For some reason they feel the need to populate the fast lanes as well as middle lanes, with no regard to other drivers.
