Thread: Left Lane Drivers

Discuss. This made me lol! Leftlanedrivers.org

If someone pulled up behind me with that sticker on their windshield, I'd slow down, just to piss them off... but I'd wait until they couldn't possibly pass me on the right... What would be even better is if I got along side an 18 wheeler... pull up even like I was going to pass the truck... then slow down... speed up and pull even... slow down... drives asshole drivers crazy.

How about instead of impeding the flow of traffic you just get over when people behind you are going faster? It pisses me off to gods hell when people go 10 under the limit in the fast fucking lane. I just want to cruise at the fucking limit or at 5 over the limit, not have to slow all the fuck down and waste my gas and time because someone is too dumb to realize they are holding up traffic.

Don't mean to argue, but generally going 55 saves a lot more gas than going 60+...
But I know exactly what you mean lol.

Most people who want to speed in the "fast lane" (actually called a passing lane) will remind you that it's the law for slower traffic to keep right.

What they aren't realizing is that it's also the law to obey the speed limit.

As soon as you break one traffic law, you lose all credibility in asking somebody to follow another one.

Entirely dependent on the car. Generally though (most common cars on the road), you are probably right.

So by that logic, all highways and interstates should be one lane?

I'm not sure how you inferred that from my post.

I believe the speed that is considered the most fuel efficient is about 62 or 63. My truck cruises better at 70 though so I like to go that speed. Most freeways here in San Antonio are 65 or 70 limits too, at least the ones I use the most, and the cops usually give you +/- 5 mph leeway on the highways for fast lane, unless you are in the Universal City or Shertz areas, then you either go the speed limit or you stay on the access roads.

Well, in order to pass someone, you need to break the speed limit, but by asking anyone to move, you lose all credibility because you are both breaking a law. So in order to stop those laws being broke, why not make it one lane?

following me?
