Limit =/= suggestion. The definitions are totally opposite.

Do you sleep good at night knowing you cut off 30-45 minutes of family time thanks to causing a 3 mile long traffic jam?


I don't speed and the rare occasion I am out on the road when poors are trying to get to their hourly jobs it enrages me at the low IQ rednecks and nurses flying to try and get to work. Especially the ones that will make multiple aggressive lane changes/weave in traffic so they can just have to melt their brakes at the next light to stop.

I also loathe tailgaters - have the nuts to pass me or follow the two second rule. Texas drivers, I would charge the idiots in ETX 10 dollars a day to cross the border into Shrevetropolis. Find a job over in Guadalalongview. The roads are packed with Texas drivers and they are always crossing the border to dump their trash in the Parish dumpsters.

They all have 3 acres a horse and cow and LARP in their trucks like they run the 6666's ranch.

STAY IN TEXAS

mean the law does state to “move over or slow down” for stopped traffic on the shoulder.


“OR” is the key here. Move over and DON’T slow down.

Ok, so what if the next lane is occupied or it’s a two lane road with oncoming traffic?

a little late rather than somebody not going home at all because some entitled jackass thinks they're more important than someone else.

Meaningless chick speak. "A little late." "entitled," "not going home at all." Drama much?

"It's just a few minutes," replicated across 200+ commuting days a year becomes real time. "Better safe than sorry," and that kind of bullshite is why people merge onto a 75mph interstate doing 38. What kind of risk do you think that presents to life and limb?

Does this still apply when the incident is on the other side of the interstate? They love to look over the median and gawk

No. But the OP wasn't;t talking about rubber necking

The people that really piss you are are the ones who slow down when the incident is on the other side of the freaking interstate with absolutely no reason to slow down whatsoever. those folks should rot in hell

I'll tell you how awful people are. We had a flight for life, car accident that required my wife to be extracted with jaws of life on the side of a state highway. Multiple people were usiing their phones to film while we waited 30 minutes for the fire department to arrive. The good Samaritan by standers who were trying to direct traffic were pissed and let these a-holes know what kind of people they were.

If you're the first your checking for hurt people.

If it’s a two lane road with no shoulder sure. If they are on the shoulder keep on trucking. On the freeway and they are on the shoulder keep on trucking or zipper merge into the adjacent lane.

do you know what the word limit means?


This is what my wife says when I get onto her for going 65 in a 70 on the interstate.

I'll tell you what. Let's put your kid on the side of the highway and see what you'd want people to do.

I have lived in Austin, New York, and currently live in DFW. At no point in any of that time have I dealt with accident traffic on a daily basis that interrupted my life so much it turned me into a cynical little bitch like you. Keep exaggerating to make your point that you aren't a decent human being.
