I haven’t found this to be a real problem in the DFW area. There’s always a few, mostly older, but the majority will run you over if you’re going less than 5 over the speed limit in the left lane.

If you’re a Louisiana driver you are so out of touch with the difference in the average Texas driver vs the average Louisiana driver.

Which state has some of the highest insurance rates? That should tell you what you need to know.

75-80 is the bare minimum you should be going on any tollway during non-rush hour. And even then you may still get passed by many.

Houston drivers don't understand how the HOV lane works; the amount of one person cars on 45 is maddening.

The amount of injury lawyer billboards on the interstates are a sign of why insurance rates are through the roof

So you think that because Gordon mckernan puts his face all up and down I-10, the insurance rates go up?

That is false as can be. Rates are high due to amount of people driving uninsured, accidents, and tickets. The drivers in La are shite. It’s a well known thing.

Also, your post indicates that you’re talking about people driving in La with Texas plates. Correct?


That most likely denotes that these drivers are originally from La and are back visiting like many others. It’s very common

No. I've driven all the way across TX 4 times. Same problem in state as out of state

They teach us we’re not near as educated as those from La. Forget the immaculate public schools and I’ve League level public universities. Louisiana has it figured out. We all dream to reside there one day.

They drive fast on the interstates as a whole but they suck with lanes

LA is horrible with a 4 way stop

live in TX, from LA, shitty drivers in both states, Texans seem to be terrible about camping out in the left lane and picking any speed and clogging up traffic, I think truckers are some of the biggest a-hole drivers on the road but put them above the TX left lane squatters it is a safety issue too, btw

That’s what happens when you lead the nation both insurance fraud and uninsured drivers. Add to that the insurance commissioner who left office in 2006 was the first in 34 years to leave and not go to jail for corruption in office.

No, it’s not. It’s for passing. There is no fast lane and slow lane.
