Is a parking lot. Dead stopped.

There was a helicopter circling above. Thinking it could’ve been Acadian. Too far back to see the accident.

I see there is still a small slowdown there on Google maps. We will be passing through there--hopefully--around 5:40.

Anybody know what's happening?

Per Google Maps, there doesn't seem to be an issue at this time. Hopefully, the problem is over.

The remnants of the cars I saw when driving past looked like they had been hit by an IED.

I hope it’s not caused by another drunk getting on the interstate going the wrong way.

The worst is people flashing their lights at you to go faster when you are 1.5 car links behind a car and 25 cars in front of that car. There is no where to go buddy.

Edit :lengths

Brain ain't working this morning.

I think you might be part of the problem. They are flashing their lights for you to move to the slow lane, not to go faster.

His point was that cars in front of him are prohibiting him from going faster. Why would he move over in that situation. I swear we have so many fricking morons in Louisiana. Exhibit A.

I once drove from California back to Louisiana and wondered why I hit traffic at the state line and ONLY at the Louisiana state line.

I think I found my proof. If you aren’t ACTIVELY passing a car, you should be in the slow lane. If everyone does this, it’s impossible for lines of idiots to stack up in the fast lane all trying desperately to go “faster”.

If you think it’s ok to get in the train of cars going 2 mph faster than the traffic in the slow lane you are the issue.

Let’s use the autobahn in Germany as an example. In sections of the Autobahn, you can drive as fast as you want. I’ve driven on it at 140 mph. There is one single reason why this works.

Do you think it’s?

A. Because people all hang out in the fast lane creating a “train” all trying to go faster?

Or

B. Because people pass and IMMEDIATELY get over and clear the lane?

Let’s hear the opinion of a learned person like yourself.

And a majority if the "slow" vehicles in the left lane have TEXAS plates. It's always them.
