The left lane should be used for passing only. I am fine with arrests. Drivers on the cell phone should get a life sentence.

Since I was passing a car driving speed limit I was speeding. Been there, done that, paid the ticket.

And to OP........watch who you call old lady! 60 IS NOT OLD! Some day you will realize this.....took me till 60 to find that out.....but guarantee you that I am not OLD! I am still!
You're still what? Blind?

I-4 is a pain, but what drives me bonkers are all these people driving 35-40 in 45, 50 and 55mph roads. I think they could put the speed limit at 1000 on Osceola Pkwy and they'd still be chugging along at 40.

Heads up
Wonder if these ignorant campers of the passing lane could use the Stand your Ground defense if some one behind them got agitated and got into the high beams,the finger gestures the cutting off maneuver obvious yelling and screaming, basically the start of a road rage incident etc.
Bang,i felt threatened, now you are dead and the passing lane camper continues to hold up traffic..

What gets me for sure is when all lanes are under speed limit and you can see clear highway in front of them.

I hate hate hate speed matchers making rolling roadblocks. Speed limits, in reality, aren't a very good law. Recklessness should be the illegal activity.

I've met people barely into their 50s who were old. I know people who are in their 80s who aren't. If you're obese, which is the new hip thing, 80 is actually dead.

Waves Hi!


Boy, those 5 car lengths are clear highway!

I just don't like going from 60 to 0 to 60 to 0 all the time, sorry!

So, IF the traffic will FLOW and not stop and go with me going 40 or even 30 in rush hour, that is what I drive.

One added benefit is I don't need my brakes changed since I rarely use them, even in rush hour.

But I won't be in the fast lanes doing that.. just the right lane.
