I've noticed lately that we have a growing epidemic of coasting. frickers coasting into turn lanes is getting bad. They put miles of turn lanes there for a reason, you slowing down twenty miles per hour before you get in that lane is just fricking dumb and it gums up the works.

The left lane is not your personal cruising lane. It's for passing. If someone is approaching faster than you're willing to go, get the hell out of the way.

Farting in the elevator when you could hold it another 20 seconds.

Oh so you YOU know the threshold between going fast and going "too fast"... fast enough to kill someone? (Hint: it doesn't have to be a fast as the posted speed limit)

Are you the Left Lane Police?

Yeah, I think we all see who the dickhead is.

Oh, so you stay in the fast lane and slow everybody down because you want to save lives. Got it

You're not the fast lane police. Get out of the fricking way you prick.

Apparently so. But to clarify, I will change lands if I see someone approaching. My issue is with people flashing their lights. I’m not moving over if you flash your lights at me. If you’re going 20 mph over the speed limit, you’re going too fast

Not in the least. I'm sure that sounded a lot funnier in your head.

As for you being the arse, policing the left lane?
Well there's a couple of other posts and some down votes that agree...



You're a dickhead.

You didn’t even bother to think about the situation I’m talking about for a second before name calling. You could have asked me a question. I prolly wasn’t as clear as I should have been. But you sound like an entitled prick. If I’m passing people and you speed up on my arse and flash your lights, I’m not getting over. It’s not everyone else on the road’s duty to appease you.

Left lane is for passing only. Yield to faster traffic.

Idiot.

Yes, clearly what you read in my original post was that I’m just chilling in the left lane, instead of people drive like maniacs at 100 mph and flash lights when people in the left lane aren’t going as fast as them. The context I did leave out was obviously I’m passing others if I’m in the left lane. Didn’t think some would focus on something I left out. Prolly because yall drive like maniacs and you saw yourself in my post.

It's okay. A lot of people never learned how to drive. Now you know.

Despite the signs stating as much about every mile on the interstate, it still boggles my mind how many people do not realize this simple concept.

You still have your left lane dozens-of-miles cruisers with light traffic around, your immediately jump 3 lanes over into the left lane after getting on at an onramp idiots, and your left lane clueless Karen going under the speed limit until passed and speeding up to match traffic and slowing down again when theres traffic in the right lane to match.

Left lane etiquette drives me absolutely nuts. I have this weird feeling internally if I'm sitting in the left lane and not actively passing anyone, like an anxiety or guilty feeling. I don't understand how others do not understand this basic concept

I’ll compare driving records with you any time bud.

Edit: Y’all chose to change what I said to something totally different. Just know if you flash your lights at me, I am not getting over. And I hope it ruins your day

If I'm flashing my lights at you, you are clearly fricking it all up.

And if you're this much of an a-hole on the road, I can't imagine how insufferable you are in person.
