Don't you just love it when some butthead has his arm up across the
back of the seat and is backing traffic up in the passing lane? He/she
is driving like they have not a care in the world, but worse is
totally oblivious to the danger he/she poses, especially in rush hour.

When (if ever) this person is ticketed for impeding the flow of
traffic, there should be an extra fine if the person's arm was across
the back of the seat at the time of the offense.

In some countries where they cut of hands for certain crimes, I wonder
if this person would lose his/her arm? (Ha, ha.)

Don't get me wrong, I am not against arms on the back of seats, just
when it reflects someone's attitude and 20 cars can't pass and are
backed up bumper-to-bumper. The right lane is for persons with arm
resting habits.
