Fair enough. I don't want to share the road with these people either. But what about all those skilled and coordinated drivers who simply do not want to drive at the speed limit? Such people exist, who enjoy driving just as much as the next person, but at a slower speed. Who is going to be so arrogant as to say they shouldn't be allowed on the very roads they pay taxes to maintain? As far as I am aware, there is no law saying everyone must travel as close to the speed limit as practical. (I might be tempted to point out that people driving fast are more likely to be stupid and uncoordinated.)
What about the foot path? Do you just push past the dawdlers and tell them they shouldn't be out unless they walk at a "reasonable" pace? Who is to say who is "out of step"?
