What? That a car that is doing the 90th percentile speed and staying left will
only have to change lanes 200 times when encountering 2000 cars, as opposed to
having to change lanes 1800 times if he stayed right and passed left? I think
it's rather obviously in the definition of "90th percentile".

Oh, yet another law to break? Big whoop - anyone that simply _catches_ me is
breaking the law by speeding. Add yet another law that gets broken, by all
parties involved? So what...

got my name into an accident report yet...
