Usually, when I notice, they are male drivers. So this begs the question, why do minivan drivers seem to drive so fast?
Could be that they are heading to the hospital with their pregnant wife in labor.
My pet theory is the male drivers are so ashamed of having to drive a minivan that they try to reclaim their man card by going faster than everyone else.

I've been passed by Priuses that were hauling which seems much more odd to me than a minivan.
