    Default Left Lane Lovers : what to do ?

    Since the state recently imposes stiffer penalties
    for speeding ,
    I noticed a new trend on highway = some psl drivers
    now stick to left lane even the right is free .

    Our law is made that you cannot overpass them by the right
    and loose them in the past (which thing I do regularly )

    Today I honk my air blown horn during a full minute till
    the driver moves to right even I closed-in very softly .
    The driver finally moved ...
    the LLL was a she ...
    looking at me like a cow

    As soon I passed , she moved back to left blocking again
    the traffic ...discouraging

    Do you have better ways to deal with LLL ?

    Thats the dumbest law ever (okay, almost). I would be all over the lights and horn.

    Bet she was talking on a cell phone the whole time too!!!

    Screw 'em, I flip them the bird as I blow by in the right lane!

    If I think they are really not paying attention, like the one I passed yesterday that was talking on a cell phone while reading papers sitting on the middle of the steering wheel, I pull back over into their lane short and tap the brakes!!

    I guess these idiots don't realize the left lane is the passing lane. Instead of cops giving out only speeding tickets, why not give out tickets for this.

    Pass 'em on the right anyway, that law is retarded. Even better, put a sticker on your car that says "If I'm passing you on the right, then YOU'RE in the wrong lane!" You could even put it on the driver's side of the car.

    The only way a "no passing on right" law will work is if there's also a "no camping out in the left lane" law that's equally enforced.
    If I'm passing you on the right, YOU are in the wrong lane!

    If speed kills, how come I'm still alive?

    " Bet she was talking on a cell phone the whole time too!!! "

    In fact she was not doing anything than bugging people.

    She was young max 22 ...but not nice at all ...it is not
    polite to say ugly ...

    I think LLL do that just to turn people mad ...they cant speed
    so they turn their frustration this way

    A month ago , another she was doing the same thing ....
    I honked/flashed for 2 miles then got high pressure ...
    I signaled for right but
    I passed her by the far left and did her a fish tale ...
    she was so mad she raised the finger ....no class at all .

    Those new strict laws convieced LLL they are right
    worse , there is never a leo to tell them
    =no it is not your problem
    if others want to break the law ....safely .

    They seem to be illuminated by a religious faith
    that tell them to save anyone going over the
    Holy PSL ....

    no one can stop the
