In Ohio, the rare nutcase is very common. They also pass on the right
shoulder. We also have our fair share of silver haired drivers that
are so short, the car looks unoccupied from behind. They usually have
the clip on wrap-around rear view mirror and the amber sunglasses that
fit over their trifocals.
I can make fun of them because I only wear bifocals.

That's certainly true, especially around the Detroit area.  Unless
you're doing something really egregious, like weaving through traffic,
you're unlikely to get ticketed there.  I don't know why this is; maybe
they have higher priorities.  It certainly can't be that they don't need
the revenue.

Since you mention I-75, I'm curious what your impression of the drivers
there is like.  On my few trips through Ohio on I-75, I've seen some
pretty crazy behavior, like people passing on the left shoulder.  Is
that typical Ohio driving or was I just observing a rare nutcase?
