re: What is it with east Texas and left lane drivers ?

i have driven 10/12 from ALA exit 44 to Baton Rouge most of the weekends this summer and i see this constantly. if you see a 6 car train in the left lane doing 72 and the right lane wide open, at least 4 of them (for sure the front one) will have texas plates and at least one will have Mississippi plates.

i mark it up to the inferior educational system there compared to Louisiana. in fact, i have heard Texas described as a lot like Louisiana, but without the passion for education.
