And when are you frickers going to wake up and pass when I get on the shoulder to allow you to do so


I fricking hate people who do this. It gives license to old grandpas and other assorted country bumpkins to drive 35 under the speed limit on 70 mph 2 lane undivided rural blacktops because "hey I can pull partially onto the shoulder to let people pass". It's dangerous as hell because they never pull completely onto the shoulder, leaving you always partially into oncoming traffic, and it makes them prone to suddenly jumping back into the lane while you are in it because they come across a tractor, debris, turning car, or breakdown on the shoulder they're driving on. It should be illegal (and I think they DID change that law). Just drive the damn speed limit, Farmer Joe.

Pass them and go your way. It's not your place to teach them a lesson that could risk others' safety. There are innocent people out there who shouldn't be in danger due to a petty anger.

Is it fricking infuriating? Absolutely! But be a grown up.....

I know. Left lane campers have an incredibly dangerous effect on traffic density behind them. That makes everything more risky.

left lane campers


Need to watch this very short video that explains, via science and space-flight, why camping in the left lane is very dangerous.

Get over, please

Common sense, but that is a good video.
The national highway safety council or someone needs to spend a few million and get a short and to the point ad campaign out over tv, radio, social media, and AARP membership list.
Run those ads over and over and over until people are sick of them.

My friend was in the left lane passing (at the speed limit) a car in the right lane that was driving under the speed limit. State trooper hauled arse up behind him, just a few feet off his back bumper, flashed his blues. My friend sped up a bit and got over, cop pulled him over for speeding.

Morale of the story - frick your blue lights.



None of that happened


Well, maybe the ticket but that's not how it happened. Just your friend's cover story to have you schmucks feel bad for him.

Roll window down. Move to an appropriate distance behind them. Flash light and sound horn. Stick arm out of the window above roof line and show them my Glock WHILE MAKING MOTION WITH MY ARM POLITELY INDICATING THEY NEED TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY.

Usually works.
