    “Selfish, self centered motherfuckers” would also describe those in the left lane while not passing with others behind them. No numbers needed. If someone is on your tail in the left lane and the right is open, move right. Everyone is safer, even people dumb enough to go 150, when passers aren’t forced to weave between lanes.

      I disagree. I think that just emboldens the fools who think they can drive over 100 MPH. If I am in the left lane, it is because I need to be in that lane. Point blank. I don’t care where you live, and what your states laws are, mine do not have those stupid ass laws.

        Drunk drivers who enter the freeway going the wrong direction usually drive in what they think is the right lane, which is actually the left lane. Camping in the left lane increases your chances of a head-on collision.

          So… to mitigate that, you encourage people to drive faster than they can reliably react to a situation such as this exact scenario…? Yeah, okay. Sound logic.

            Wow. Get familiar with the Uber app. You shouldn’t be driving if that’s the conclusion you reach based on anything I’ve said.
