I have slowed down before. Tailgating bugs me too... But, then, lately, I am really picky about all sorts of driving problems. I comment frequently to my friends that I wish I was an on-duty cop all the time in an unmarked car so that I could just spend my days pulling people over for speeding, failing to signal, running red lights, stopping their cars in crosswalks, and whatever other little things irk me. Basically, Calgary has a lot of bad drivers (according to visitors from elsewhere, a lot more than most places) and I get fed up easily. Fortunately, I never DO anything, so I don't think I suffer from road rage--more like "road annoyance followed by police fantasy".
