Maybe you are the young "woman" on the cell phone yakking away, but only 10' off my bumper? Maybe you are the "younger" driver who think you can control any vehicle at any speed and wish any of us with even a hint of grey should just give up?
There is always someone who thinks they should get to drive whatever speed they like, everyone else is stupid and a horrid driver, and the fast lane is theirs only.
And for those who've never driven a "huge" SUV, try parking in a regular space. When you get it in there, pity the persons beside you who cannot get their doors open. That is why many take up 2 spaces. And besides, if you're such a great driver, can't you do a reverse 180 right into the barely wide enough slot by the SUV and climb out the window?!!

The HOV lane is the fast lane when not in use as a HOV lane, you do realize this right?

If you are doing 68 in the fast lane, and someone is behind you, you need to move your ass out of the left lane and let them pass, not be a ******* and sit there like a retard. Once they pass, you can move back into the lane, although if you are only driving at 68 I would suggest just staying int he left lane from now on.

I drive a big truck (07 Silverado) and I can fit into any parking space just fine, and I am able to open my doors and get out too.

Nope. You're that great a driver and more important, just go around me. Get closer, I just slow down. Deal with it.
And a Silverado isn't a big SUV. F350 duelie, Excursion...more along those lines.
BTW...I drive fast when I can without the risk of cameras or idiots who think they're big shots. That's mostly on the open interstate, usually 85-95, sometimes a tad more.
But the time difference in metro Phoenix traffic between 10-15 over in spurts between camera enforcement zones and a steady 3-5 over without speedup, slowdown....what do ya figure? a couple minutes for most commutes? My $185 or whatever the fine is, more important to me than being "first". Just keep flipping me off. I might have saved you $185.
Or your life, if you run into somebody who thinks you're too slow....

Retards like you are the reason there are so many accidents. You should NEVER have to pass on the right.

F350's and Excursions are roughly the same size as my truck in length and width.

You can drive more than 68 by a camera, you can go up to 74 I believe, so speed up, or get the **** over.

Who do you think you are? You're not special, you need to follow the same rules everyone else does, and lean how to drive.

Karma is a *****, and it will come back on you someday. I really hope I run into you on the road.

Just calling people "retards" says plenty about you. What class.

Try again. Unless you've a duelie, or least a 3/4t lwb, no where close.

You believe? so you're paying the ticket?

Follow the same rules? wouldn't that mean I have to obey the speed limit? afterall.....

By the indication of your driving habits, chances are you will....run into me or someone else driving in a sane manner

Its not Phoenix drivers, its all the other city drivers moving to Phoenix.

So wait, how fast is too fast then? Is the speed limit just a suggestion, or is it actually supposed to be the limit, regardless of what lane you are in? I don't live in Phoenix, I'm just curious.

You can definitely tell how I drive over the internet.

You aren't driving in a "sane" manner you are driving like you think you're better than everyone else on the road and don't feel you should obey basic traffic knowledge.

What's your license plate number and type of vehicle? I want to make sure I tailgate you next time you think you can do 68 in a 65 in the FAST lane.

No, it's just a suggestion. You won't get pulled over for going 5-10 over the speed limit, cops don't waste their time.

Every state gives some leeway over the limit. The speed above posted needs to be over 10MPH to get a photo radar fine. So "limit" is really relative.

drb you pose as much or more danger as the speeder who becomes irritated when you stubbornly refuse to yield or slow down in the passing lane. You can choose to move over in a sane manner but instead choose to p1ss off the speeder forcing him over into slower traffic in the right lanes. Be the grown-up and let the fool by. Please don't endanger me and my family by forcing an aggressive driver to cut me off so he can get around you.

[KarmaPhx]

Exactly, passing on the right is much more dangerous to everyone than just moving over and letting everyone pass.

[stilldirrty]

Every single state thinks they have the worst drivers.
Maybe America is crappy all together?
(At driving?) aha. Probably.
