It doesn't say anything in that statute about speed limits. So it doesn't say "unless the person behind you is speeding"

It doesn’t say that verbatim. It also doesn’t state your exception. Either you are just obstinate or you don’t have the comprehensive power in you head to understand the statute. Are you a SJW also ? The stubbornness and lack of being able to comprehend is a glaring trademark.

Do you have the right to bitch someone out that's going 75 in the left lane?
If they're cruising for a while, yes.


But to those who want to go 85mph and think they should NEVER have to slow down at any point and flip out because I'm going 75-80 while actually passing a car and they can't stand the fact that they have to slow down for 3 seconds so I can finish my pass, frick those clowns. They're just as bad as the person who cruises in the left lane.

Agreed. Those people suck.

I usually wait until there's a clear path for the person to get over to the right lane before I get mad.

Ab-so-fricking-lute-ly.



Notice how the sign doesn't say "Slower but not going over the speed limit"? That means regardless of your speed, if you are in the inside lane and someone going faster comes up behind you then move over.

The speed doesn’t matter. What matters is if you are passing or cruising.

Your argument is based on a flawed principle. You bitch at those tho break the law by cruising in the left lane while you break a law by speeding. Why do you expect someone to obey that sign while you ignore a speed limit sign?

They don't want to pass they just want to speed.

If someone is going 75 they need to stay in the right lane...
Pass people very quickly (85-90)
Then get back in the right lane...

That mfer that has his cruise on at 71 and passes a dude going 70 needs to be shot...

Are they currently, or about to be, passing someone in the right lane?



Clairification:

This also applies if they are CONTINUALLY passing vehicles.

This is a whole 'nother issue altogether if you are bitching because someone is "cruising" in the left lane and what is really happening is that you expect them to pull to the right, decelerate, clear the path for the One True King of the Road, and move back to attain the desired speed.

You either don't do much interstate driving, or you are weaving back and forth like a maniac if you hold to this policy.

Holy frick. I lost 100IQ reading this.

Speed is irrelevant in riding the passing lane.

You could be doing 50 if you are passing someone you are GTG

If you are doing 150 and not passing your breaking the law.

Is that damn simple. Lol

I meant on a road where the speed limit is 70.... There is no need to be passing a car doing 70, if you pass me and Im doing 70, you are breaking the law.

Same here.

Vlad is one of those pieces of shite who thinks it's his god given right to cruise in the left lane while talking on his cell phone so he's not inconvenienced by having to pay attention to traffic.

That's not for you to enforce. What you are required by law to do is get the frick out of the left lane unless you are actively passing.

Period. There is no other argument otherwise.
