I can't believe there are jerks posting who believe it is their duty to drive in the left lane in order for them to impose speed limits on others.


I'll bet those kind of people are a real pain to have for relatives, friends , or neighbors.

I would agree with this. As I've stated previously I would stop focusing enforcement on speeding and ticket those camping in the left lane, tailgaters and passing on the right. There will always be idiots but if you start ticketing people camping in the left lane many of those tailgaters and people weaving in and out of traffic magically go away.

The pointless argumentativeness they have displayed on this thread reveals they probably do indeed have very real social issues IRL. Unsurprising, I suppose.

Someone had brought it up because it was in the video. You responded that it had already happened to you. You said it was no big deal and got a nice settlement check out of it. What happened to you was not the same. When the other poster got the impression it was similar, you did not correct them.

We have all seen those cases where you drive into a pack of traffic, it's stop and go, magically clears up and then turns back into a cluster f***. What causes that is a disruption to the flow of traffic, you can have a car literally miles ahead of you that has caused that back up. I've seen it modeled on a computer and it's pretty incredible how that one car that has slowed traffic down travels in a wave that will move from one pack of cars to another.

Mostly just on anonymous internet forums where it doesnt matter.

Don't be modest, sounds like you pull it off IRL too.

Hopefully your stubbornness and inability to follow the law doesn't get yourself or others killed. Hopefully, however, you are ticketed frequently for failing to follow the law and move over

So true. People like this are generally burdens on society, whether they realize it or not.
