I commute on 148th regularly (South Bellevue to Redmond). And it appears people are all very impatient and honk happy.
AITA for coasting to red light? Once I see red light. I let go of gas. I just coast until I’m there. Chances are, it’ll turn green before I stop. So therefor I never had to use any brake. I take pride in using the least amount of brake. I can sometimes commute 25 minutes in traffic without the touching brakes at all.
But most car behind me gets honk happy. It’s like car brain can’t understand the concept of reading traffic or slowing decelerating before having to stop.
No I can’t just “use the right lane”. There’s traffic on both lane. It’s not like the road is empty.
…….Maybe I should be flooring to red light, then slam on my brake like all the Tesla’s Yeah. Nope. That’s a waste of gas (or electricity is Tesla’s case). Why are people in such a hurry to go stop in the red light? So they can scroll on their phone?
