Different styles of driving *are* accomodated, as are different modes of transport and indeed different models of car. Since you (presumably) drive an Audi, do you exect that everyone drives one since that is your preference? Do you think people that drive other models are wrong? Do you think motorbikes should be outlawed too? Incidentally, it speaks volumes that you've bailed out of replying to any message of mine, yet you're still sniping and whining elsewhere. andyt |

You mean like driving 5 under in a passing lane? Or those folks who swing wide for right turns, blocking two lanes? Folks who stop needlessly on on-ramps, because they can't figure out how to merge? Dream up some other legal, but discourteous traffic behavior that suits the scenario. There are probably thousands. But you get the point. Unlike you, I support courtesy. You support "if it feels good, do it - to hell with the rest of you." MFFY. > Since you > (presumably) drive an Audi, do you exect that everyone drives one > since that is your preference?

It speaks volumes that you are running around a.a.a. humping my posts trying to goad me into a flamewar. Find another hobby. E.P. |

And secondly logical. It's also kind of you not to block the passing lane. When I drive long distances, I always appreciate courteous driving by folks, and I try and repay the favor by doing likewise. Cheers! E.P. |

Re: Newsgroup Etiquette
Why not just be an individualist and follow your own inclination, rather
