Has this ever happened to any one else?


Pavlov says hi.

You just firmly imprinted your brain's ability to notice possible police when you are speeding. You do not give the dogs food every time you ring the bell. Often, but not every time. The few times they just salivate is important to imprint how much the bell means to them.

And yes, its happened to me a couple of times. Not with park rangers, but other vehicles with lights.

Possibility, even though a park 'ranger', he/she was an LEO...

Actually, by law, yes



nah, I've got my cruise set, Im sitting back cruising and passing the slow drivers. If and when someone comes behind me and wants to pass I'll move over.

If no one else is on the road and I'm driving in the left lane, does it really matter?

they are roads where the right lane is riddled with potholes from the 18 wheelers

if nobody is around I ride in the left to avoid beating the shite out of my suspension

440 in Nashville is like this. The right lane is basically the same as all roads in Louisiana. Thankfully, traffic so bad that no one is at risk of passing or not passing in any lanes.

nah, you posted the statute that completely contradicts your prior post about not getting over because you were going fast enough. You should go take a nap paw paw

I'm stating facts. If you are passing in the passing lane, you can not nor will not be pulled over and ticketed due to the Slow Poke law.

Half the OT wishes they had lights on the roof of their cars so they could do this shite.

Illegal to stay in the left lane. Even if driving 75

1. lol!

2. If they're going that much faster than you you should pull into the other lane to let them by anyway #TrafficKarma

I was driving home in the heavy rains yesterday. I came upon this lady in the passing lane who kept tapping her brakes with nobody ahead of her. One of the most dangerous things I've ever seen on a highway. That's a recipe to cause people behind you to hydroplane or hydroplane yourself. I had to move over before she killed me.

Sometimes I wish I had a big LED ticker on my car to tell other drivers what they were doing wrong.

Why would this make you mad? If someone is clearly going faster than you, then you should pull over.

If you're all flustered that it's a car with lights on the roof then you must be very beta.
