When you're driving down route 26 towards Portland, OR, you eventually reach a tunnel that splits off into three directions.  The right most lane takes you towards I5 South which leads to places like Wilsonville and Salem.  The middle lane takes you straight to downtown Portland, specifically right down Market.  If you stay on Market you'll eventually meet up with the Willamette River.  The left lane takes you towards I5 North which leads to Washington State. 

This left most lane is one of the most exciting lanes to drive in, because it is so perfectly banked that you can zip right down it without slowing down much at all.  So it is with dismay when I drive down this lane, whether it be morning, noon or night, and people slow down to incredibly crazy speeds, and therefore take one of my more pleasant adventures away from me.  Don't get me wrong, I don't advocate driving down this lane at 70mph or anything, but you surely don't have to slow down to 30mph, do you?

Why do people want to take my fun away?
