I BEG you! Get out of the left lane. If you are passing…fine. Otherwise, please! Get back to the right lane. This is the most idiotic, frustrating thing I have ever had to witness.

PS—It would not kill you to use a blinker every once in awhile, either.

Love,
me

Whats wrong with you passing on the right. There no law or signs except a few areas in Mountains if they are doing speed limit then they have every right to be in left lane as much as you do.

I agree re: the lane assignments.

However, if I'm going 10 over the limit to safely pass, and some leadfoot flies up behind me attempting to encourage me to break the sound barrier?

I'm unlikely to acquiesce.

It's not just NC, it's a great portion of the country.

I don't believe you. Besides, you can't just make up a rule of the road and expect everyone else to follow it just because you say so. If it bothers you so much then maybe you should stop driving and take the bus.

As long as the folks aren't taking their half of the road out of the middle, we're usually willing to cut 'em some slack here in NC.
