She had a ton of bumper stickers too, so she was one of *those* people.

This is a good article from last year. The long story short is that most people in this state are simply too stupid to grasp it.

Source of the post I actually submitted a request to PennDOT
Your post was sane until this part. You really think they will do something about it?

In Oklahoma I think it is actually against the law to merge at the last possible point in a construction zone.

People who join conference calls from their car's speakerphone while driving in traffic. Either decline the meeting, or pull over and turn off speakerphone.

To be fair, we shouldn't assume the gender of said driver. We're all to blame really.

Sure, when they don't need to talk. That's not my issue. Listening to them try and talk on a connection with static and background noise is brutal to follow.

Being able to understand what people are saying is generally a good thing. This isn't a difficult concept to grasp.

I already received an email back from PennDOT.
Good Morning,

We are in receipt of your Customer Care Concern. It has been assigned to our Freeways Section where an engineer/technician will review it. Once their review is complete you will be notified of their findings.
I Googled the person she CC'ed on the email and she is the senior civil/transportation engineer for PennDOT District 6. I'm pretty impressed so far.
