The left lane is for passing (Miami: drivers license, car, road test)

I don't think traffic is really the issue...it's the inconsiderate and uncourteous people driving that is..

Ding, Ding, Ding. Traffic in Miami isn't all that bad compared to other places, it is the drivers that are the issue.

I just got back from spending a few days in Boston. You want to talk about ******* drivers, look no further. There were 3 wrecks on their stretch of I-95 this morning, which almost caused me to miss my flight. Granted, drivers there don't give you the feeling that they're going to kill you, but they are a tad more aggressive than Miami drivers, only they actually know how to drive (for the most part). They are much quicker to beep you if you don't turn on red in a flash, or if they're behind you and don't feel like having the patience to wait. Plus, the roads in MA are a ****ing nightmare...windy, narrow, full of potholes and many don't even have painted lines!

This is what blows my mind about miami....for the most part the roads are straight and flat. No tight roads to worry about clipping mirrors, no ice, no snow, no steep hills...and so on. I don't get it...

IT's not the traffic or the drivers, it's the lack of streets and reliable urban planning.

Please adhere to this unwritten rule.

Especially on the Palmetto during rush hour. I am the black chevy aveo passing people on the right because the chonga or similar character (not gender discriminate) does not check their rear view mirror. Thanks people!

The problem is, in every other place on Earth, even the Northern part of Florida, this IS a written rule.

I have lived in Africa, Europe and the Americas and this is a problem IN AMERICA ONLY.

And yes, it's a universal law.

Now, the reason this is a problem in America is:

Anyone can do to the DMV, pass the test and get their license a few months later. In the rest of the world (for the most part), you are REQUIRED to go to DRIVING school, not just sit in front of a computer and answer questions about signs.
