99% of the people in my town hate me because I obey speed limits. No one else seems to care.
... and because I accelerate / decelerate gradually, which saves brakes and fuel.

My wife has told me that I drive like an old man for years. She, otoh, must be at the speed limit by halfway down the block, but she never speeds or violate any other laws.
When I drive, she watches the road like a hawk and never pays the slightest attention to me. At least every mile or so she tells me about something or or even screams out loud "BRAKE!"when the brakes are already on.
A while back there was a rancorous decision that I would NEVER drive with her in the car again, and the last time I did I put her in the back seat.
Imagine what that does to one's concentration, and mood as driving.
I fully realize that I should do everything's le to avoid confrontation.
