Further more, its a Land Rover Discovery Series One, and anything less then a Series Two Discovery doesn't deserve to be mentioned let alone bitched about (And if you can't tell the difference then you can't lump all White Land Rover Discovery Series One drivers into the same catagory seeing as how 92% of all LRs are still on the road). Why you might ask? Because, you drive in one of the nicest cites on the face of the earth... why don't you come out west where we have many, many more Land Rover Discoveries (One on every corner as my friend from Pittsburgh mentioned) and try and write that article here.

Hear! If you were in a long checkout line at the grocery store and somebody tried to push to the head of the line, everybody'd beat the crap out of him, and rightly so. But in a construction merge on the highway, people think it's perfectly OK to zoom all the way to the front and then expect everyone in the correct lane to let them in. Why I always ride the bumper of the guy in front of me in that situation. Unless I'm feeling generous. And I rarely feel generous. McSmooth, Hear! Hear!
