In Baton Rouge, they think the right lane is a pain in the arse with people constantly merging into traffic. Zipper merge doesn't exist in this town. It's more of a pull onto the interstate ASAP.

How about the drivers in the northern Great Plains who habitually hold speed and move onto the pullover area which is well paved to let speeding cars pass . This happens on two lane roads
The last time I had this happen to me was on a rural Texas farm road about 10 years ago. It was much appreciated.

Leave on time. Not our fault you’re running late.
If you’re not 30 minutes early, YOURE LATE!

its the entitlement attitude plus the distracted driving problems. People are entitled and think im here im in the lane go around me
the other group has their face buried in a phone or whatever else and just aren't paying attention or care

Because it is an issue that causes traffic accidents and fatalities.

I will use the left lane and I do not drive 15-20 mph over the limit.
If you aren't going faster than the right lane, you are breaking the law in most states, regardless of the posted speed limit.

I'll move back into the right lane when I'm finished passing the traffic

Nobody is condoning acting like a jackass. You seem to think that anybody that brings up this issue is the road raging maniac, which isn't the case.

90% of people are dumb. Once you accept this, dealing with people like this will become less angering.

There is one exception to that rule that I follow. If I'm passing an on ramp entrance I'm not merging in the right lane until I clear this folks.

True, but it makes mitigating it (passing on the right) much easier and safer.

Everytime I get opn the interstate and I am trying to slow down and move over into the right lane, some idiot who thinks they are Mario Spaghetti, tries to pass me on the right and blocks the lane again.

Because slowpokes will camp out in the center lane.

HE just admitted it in the video.. Idiots make dangerous moves by trying to pass on the right..
If you watch the video you will see that the driver in the left lane cannot get over because Mario Spaghetti is moving into the lane to pass and therefore blocking it...
It wouldn't be so bad if the guy behind him didn't do it too, once the lane cleared...

When the state of Alabama can maintain an interstate to where the right lane isn't filled with potholes, grooves, and patchwork, I'll drive in the right lane
Amen brother!

I invite you to spend 10 minutes watching the cameras on the five lane (not including HOV) Katy Freeway. It's not even rush hour right now, and there are people doing the wrong thing. It's even worse, usually.

Didn't California try that years ago, and then dropped it when people were getting slaughtered on those highways?

It's funny how many of you think they all don't know the rules. A lot of them know, they just happen to be more important than everyone else.

People driving like jackasses and speeding, usually with road rage cause way more accidents.

You selectively omitted the part where I said I was passing cars in the right lane.

Most people who don't, stay in the left lane because some jackass is road raging and driving as close to their bumper as possible because their jackasses.

The people who constantly bring this up are the exact jackasses I am talking about that think the speed limit is however fast they are going and everyone should get to of their way because they shouldn't be inconvenienced by slower traffic even if that slower traffic is going at or slightly above the legal speed limit.
I have spent enough time on the highways and interstates around this country to say confidently that people driving the speed limits are NEVER held up by slower traffic in the left lanes. It ALWAYS people driving excessively fast and above the speed limit that are flashing their lights and blowing their horns whole screaming at cars around them.
It is what it is and it's a losing argument for those of you who try to make it something that it isn't.

Think about how stupid you are. Imagine having 3 meetings and showing up 30 minutes early to all of them. You wasted 1.5 hours of your life being early. Show up on time or a few minutes early. 30 minutes early is dumb.
