State revenue would be off the charts and eventually people might start to learn the lesson right? Maybe we can still save society.

They'd be pulling over a frick ton of 18 wheelers going 71mph trying to pass the other 18 wheeler in the right lane going 70mph and taking ten miles to do it.

They just need to legalize letting private citizens pit maneuver left lane campers. Maybe even incentivize it. Tax rebate or a free tv with video evidence of taking out a camper.

If people used lanes properly, we probably wouldn’t need to widen every highway that goes through the state. Maybe only 70% of them.

All it takes is one inconsiderate mouth breaker to cause so much traffic. I think they should ticket ppl and the fine should be 500+.

Or what if they pulled everyone over for going 20 over the speed limit in the left too?

Now do illegal u-turns, passing on double lines, not using turn signals, driving with lights not on, running redlights, etc... I see these everyday going to from work.

Then it would make the impatient fricks even more mad because it would slow them down even more.

This. The heavy freight traffic on I-10 is a huge issue. It’s not as bad on I-55 or I-20. So many trucks, and a lot of the younger drivers really aren’t very good.

That said, Nissan Altimas and (to a lesser extent) pickups with Texas plates that are horrific with left lane camping. It’s almost always a clapped out Altima.

It's true. I see people do the wildest shite because there's simply no consequences. If I were a lawmaker Iw would punish selfish traffic actions so painfully no one would do it. Or only the rich, but boy would my city be flush.

I think every state has a law on the books but on one actually enforces it. I would make this a point of emphasis and be rolling in ticket money.

Let’s focus on the carjackers and murders first.

Left lanes should not have speed limits on the interstates.

What if they ticketed people doing 110mph on the interstate in all lanes trying to kill everyone, even the shoulder? I see it every morning going to work on I-10.

You would also have to give tickets for tailgating and then; of course, speeding. Passing in the left lane does not mean you get a free pass for speeding. I know it is hard for some to logically understand that there is also a speed limit.
There is just a lot of give and take while driving busy highways.

I'd give them tickets for poor traffic behavior on the interstate in their stolen cars

Yea, man. More policy and enforcement that can be abused is always the way to solve problems.

Glad to see the OT is still pro small Government
