You need to follow the speed limit too, TPOS.

When I’m in the left lane already going 80mph because everyone else in the right lane is going 65-70mph and some dickhead comes up behind me right on my arse pisses me off more. I’m sorry I’m not going 100mph, a-hole

Doesn’t bother me none. Want to go? Go. More than happy to get over. Ticket bait.

Because you're retarded and don't understand English or the flow of conversations. That's a "you" problem, not a "me" problem.

If they're going the speed limit in the left lane IDK why anybody would be upset about it since it's illegal to pass them.


It’s illegal to stay in the left lane if you’re not actively passing someone.

That’s what speed limits are for.


This has nothing to do with driving in the left lane. It is strictly for passing. It is not for driving and regardless of the speed limit, the left lane is supposed to travel at least 4 mph faster than the right lane for safety.

In most states you are breaking the law if you are in the left lane and not actively passing someone.

Worst drivers are of any race in a Dodge Charger or Dodge Challenger. Those have no respect and go 30+ speed limit.

Mississippi folks should be pulled over and tased when caught driving in the left lane. Every time I pass someone wanting to play train engineer with a mile of cars on their arse, it's a Mississippi plate

Alabama has a state law to get your butt out of that lane. You can drive for 1.5 miles while not passing and get away with it.



The cops doing do shite about it though, so the law is basically pointless.

There is no lane, including the left lane, that allows you to exceed the speed limit. I drive the posted speed limit in the left lane everyday. You can flash your lights all you want. I’m not speeding up or getting over.

I’m the dude that drives the speed LIMIT. Even old grannies flip me off as they are passing me

That’s me. I just stay to the right and do my thing. I don’t need to sprint red light to red light or get where I’m going 30 seconds faster.

People still ride my butt and swerve around me all pissed off. It used to bug me but I don’t care anymore. Some people are going to be jackasses regardless of what I do and it has nothing to do with me.

These topics always boil down to the same thing.

1. Drivers doing the rolling road block by matching the speed of the right out of either a sense of justice or obliviousness.

2. The perpetual passers in the left lane that want to drive faster than everybody so they can stay in the left lane.

3. The in between who go faster than 1 and slower than 2.

ETA: Can we talk about the real crime of drivers not pay attention at turn signals?

People passing are just as bad. When someone in the right lane needs over they won’t let them in. I would stay in the left lane if nobody would let me in. This includes trucks.

18 Wheelers that get in the right lane to pass but go .005 mph faster than the right lane are the fricking worst.
