It's not that serious , I'll just around if I can .
It is that serious. During heavy traffic hours, one or two idiots driving like this could cause the far left lanes to be slower than the on/exit lane. Mix this with Hella people who have somewhere to go, a schedule to meet, gotta use the restroom, who have a lead foot, etc., this is a premium recipe for road rage or collisions.

There's been many many trips I made on i10 where the right lane or the ramp or the feeder was moving much faster than the rest of the highway, and i10 is one of the widest highways in the country down here. I would think there's an accident or something, but it was always open every time the highway sections widened up. No overturned burning cars, detached limbs, firetrucks, patrols or nothing.

I'm conflicted, cause I fukking hate slowpokes that stay in the left lane, but also pulling people over for that is pretty wack

The Truth
This shyt should be taught in schools because these motherfukkers stupid as hell with this…


And no shyt dude was from Texas and then tried to lie about it… probably from bum ass SA too. From my minimum experience in Texas, this goofy shyt is almost normal and its never enforced. You can drive for 15 minutes and see at least 10 of these.

Nah. Thats a double standard in most states


A law enforcement officer is literally telling someone to ignore the speed limit. This same officer will also pull you over for speeding and give you a ticket.

I've been in that lane and I've seen people going at 30 miles over the speed limit, trying to be on your bumper trying to get you to drive it 30 miles over the speed limit and that's a no.

In some states, I understand that there is a rule saying that you can't be in the left lane unless you're overtaking. For example when passing through Kansas in Missouri , I noticed this myself due to signs that clearly marked this on the side of the road. But this isn't the case in most States. There is no special value to the left lane even if there is an HOV. It's no more dangerous to turn on the right lane then it is to turn and overtake on the left lane.


If you aren't going insanely below the speed limit, there is no such thing as impeding traffic. You are using the road exactly the same way the civil engineers who designed the road intended it to be used.:camby:

I was taught when getting my permit that a traffic cop overrides a traffic light/ or driving sign
