Are these the ones that try and slow down a mile before reaching a red stoplight in hopes of it turning green before they get there (not knowing the lights work on a sensor and not a timer so it won't actually even think about changing with no cars waiting, so they get there and WAIT anyhow)?
I assume they are the ones who upon getting a green light then accelerate like a 36HP 1955 VW beetle so the MPG display on their dash doesn't dip below some value. (Making it impossible for the Camaro behind to avoid the dreaded skip-shift)
They would also be the ones who don't even so much as yield at stop-signs because they read on the internet that they can save gas by slowing down as little as possible, and that means only stop at intersections if you think the other traffic won't be able to avoid hitting you when you dart in front of them.
