    I am a real wimp when it comes to driving. Never have gone over 75mph ever. My typical speed is 70, I really don't care to go any faster.

    Just did google map from Newark to NYC, the NYC end destination it gave was a couple blocks from the World Trade Center and it gave a distance of 10.8 miles with a time of 22 min not in traffic and 40 min in traffic. So .49 miles/minute and .27 miles/minute respectively.

    Be wary good sir, I hear some of these newfangled horseless carriages can go over 100 miles in an hour!

    Anyways, the other annoying thing is people who get into the fast lane (sooooooooo many two lanes in one direction freeways around here) and. Never. Get. Out.

    It doesn't matter how slow they're going or how many people are behind them or the fact that they aren't going any faster than the slow lane (or they're going 1 mph faster and they believe they have the God-given right to go that exact speed in the fast lane and NOT ONE BIT FASTER) they don't more over until it's their exit, then they swerve across.

It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter; the rain may enter; but the King of England cannot enter – all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement! - William Pitt the Elder

    I never go into the fast lane. I don't drive that much period. Freeway runs straight through my town so I can hop on for 5 min in slow lane and hop off on the other side without having to ever change lanes.

    EDIT: To clarify I stay in the middle lanes when I drive long distances, not just because I know I am a slowpoke for going 70 but also I sometimes forget what exit I need to get off of, so I don't like being in the fast lane when I realize that my exit is only a mile or two away. Never swerve into lanes and always use my signal. I try to be Mr. Perfect driver.

    I think that Google Maps is a bit inaccurate tbh. It can take like 40 minutes alone to cross the GW bridge when I try to get into the city.
