I wonder how this affects mortality rates? I often have noticed, in Portland Oregon in particular, there's a big crowd of subaru outback drivers that seem to take joy in purposefully slowing others down. I often wonder what medications they are on, and also: they tend to drive with the window shade down 24/7. I often wonder if they have depression issues or simply lack control over their lives, so they want to "take control" over other peoples lives. The ones with the bumper stickers are the worst offenders. Then upon passing them, they tend to do something passive aggressive: horn honks, speeding up, trying to keep up with you in the corners (hahaha, subarus understeer SO BAD when stock, so it's hilarious when they attempt this), flashing high beams, etc. Prius drivers used to be the worst, but they've been eclipsed by the outback / subaru drivers atleast in the PNW. The Subaru is the "I'm not sure what to buy, I'm risk adverse, I want to "Fit in" (instead of just buying winter tires), type of individuals.

Barry Walker by road design (in non congested or rural four lanes), there shouldn't be people going faster than you if you're in the left lane. You, travelling in the right lane see a slow moving vehicle, say truck struggling up a hill at 60 in a 70, 1) check mirrors and head check while signalling 2) move deliberately accelerating into the left lane 3) accelerate to a comfortable overtake speed 4) pass the truck and return to the right lane now going about 70ish +/- 5mph Here's where the anger starts. 1) There's a hotrodder far behind you wanting to go 85 but you are in the midst of your safe pass when he catches up, starts twitching, cussing, flashing and had to (horrors) cancel his cruise control. He can just damned well wait for you to complete your pass at the passing speed you have selected, and then he will pass you as you return right at a safe interval in front of the truck. Or 2) you're passing the truck and see several other vehicles a half mile or more ahead and decide you may as well just stay in the left lane...which causes the hotrodders to rightly get impatient and have to pass you on the right, cutting off the truck and almost clipping your bumper. You guys know that sooner or later you have been #1 or #2. Avoid that. The hotrodder is a bully trying to act like an ambulance and force others off the road, be it a track fantasy bike, a Tesla, a BMer, a ricer, a Charger/Mustang/Camaro or an Ecsalade. You still must wait your turn, despite the belief you are a Road God. #2 is the Prius SJW who is trying to select the appropriate speed for the entire highway. Oh in a traffic jam, just fill all the lanes to stack the traffic symmetrically (emergency vehicles use the shoulder) and keep moving with as safe an interval as possible. Until the jam clears or you reach the obstruction, stay in whatever lane you were stacked into. Numerous stupid lane changes in a jam only makes the jam take longer, and we all know it.

Let me tell a story about how a left lane hog ruined my life: I got a call late one evening from my GF’s best friend. She told me that my GF was in the hospital about to miss-carry our baby. I looked at my clock and saw that I had exactly 30 minutes to make the last ferry boat of the night to make the 2 hour drive (and ferry ride) to see her in the hospital. I grabbed a toothbrush and a change of clothes and ran out the door! As soon as I entered the freeway I could see two cars driving side-by-side in the two lanes of the highway ahead of me. They were both going 5 miles/hr under the speed limit and they were literally the only cars I could see on the highway. They both refused to do anything to allow me to pass for several exits. Eventually I was able to get around them, but apparently the lady who was blocking the left lane didn’t think I should be allowed to pass her, so she called the cops. I got pulled over, did not get a ticket, but as you can guess, I did not make that ferry because of the delay. I drove all the way there to see the ferry pulling away. I then had to turn around and drive another 4 hours to get to the hospital and by then, she had already miscarried and was home crying. I wasn’t able to even drive my GF home from the hospital after we lost our baby because some woman felt entitled to block traffic in the left lane. Put that in your pipe and smoke it entitled Lane hogs. Your actions destroy the lives of fellow Americans and you don’t even care!!!

And usually they're not going faster than the speed limit. In those cases, I pass 'em all in the right lane. It's the complete opposite how it's supposed to work. They use the passing lane to travel, and others are forced to use the travel lane to pass. It's how I would expect things to work on Bizarro World. Driving in Europe is so much better.

If you flashed your lights as soon as you were behind me, I wouldn't brake test you, but you might have to watch me do a 1/4 mile long lane change before I am out of your way. I treat people with the respect they show others.

I was crying and panicking and this just made everything worse. You have no idea what the person behind you is speeding for, they could be rushing a loved one to the hospital, trying to get some place to say good bye to a loved one, maybe as to not miss a birth of their child and yes they could just be hauling ass because they love to speed. I don’t care the reason if someone behind me is going faster I’ll pull over.

A man was killed recently, shot at a stop light when he just looked at the driver next to him. Yes the person behind you speeding might be in an emergency but if in their haste, they get in a car accident and or kill someone else, how is THAT going to help them? If the emergency excuse works, so does me speeding if I'm late for work. And yet, I always hear in my head the words of officers I've been with and my late grandfather, if I'm rushing to get somewhere and I get into an accident, I'll never make it there. It's not worth speeding. I've seen so many car accidents where people were speeding and the end results. No thank you. I definitely get frustrated when two semis are hogging both the left and right lanes, for some reason one semi thinks they are faster than the other but they aren't lol.

It’s the few bad apples in rural areas that are why i think it’s worse here. 2 lane highways and grandma’s going under while passing 10 18 wheelers is a big problem here.

b mel That’s because truck drivers are trying to get somewhere & then those Sunday drivers block up both right lanes ... so the truck gets in the hammer lane to get past said Sunday driver however once that slow driver see’s a truck trying to pass them their ego takes over & they all of a sudden remember where the gas pedal is & instead of speeding up & going on about their business they speed up just a little bit to stay barely in front of the truck or most dangerously ride right along side the truck..... if more people were like Casey then I don’t think that wouldn’t happen so often.

These 'oblivious' people pay some form of attention because they often speed up just enough to prevent passing and block traffic. We should shame people who cause accidents and traffic. Blocking a lane of traffic?? "Try harder" - Yelling 'try harder' at these broken down motorists has made them cry on occasion, perhaps they will try harder with their next car.

Got the same issue in Australia but obviously the right hand instead. I'm on my green P's in Victoria which means I've done 120 hours driving with a supervisor (parents) and now 1 year on my own. Whenever i get on the freeway i run into an issue where i'm in the right lane passing a slow vehicle in the left. They'll pull out into the right lane themselves to pass a slow vehicle in the left instead of waiting for me to pass them and then overtaking the slow vehicle that was in front of them, this creates bumper to bumper traffic at 110km'h involving myself who's only got about 300 hours driving experience. Another common thing is tailgating on freeways at those speeds mentioned before which leaves no time for reacting or breaking!

Once you pass that you have to drive on your learners which you can get at 16 and log 120 hours with a supervising driver which is basically someone who has a full divers licence. For example a partner or guardian. Once you turn 18 and have 120 hours logged you need to sit two test. One is a computer test which has videos play of hazards and you click when you would react to the hazard and the other test is a 45 min drive test with an instructor to see you’re capable of driving. Once you complete the test you go on red P’s for a year and green p’s for 3 years which basically means you can drive on your own but with restrictions like no mobile phone use even for gps or banned sports cars. After you finish your P’s you get your full licence

Fun social experiment you can try for yourself. Set cruise control in your car to 2-4 mph faster than the current flow of traffic. Do not adjust your speed. You will catch up to the car ahead of you. Change lanes to pass car. More often than not the car will speed up when you try to pass them. Most of the time this creates a rolling road block. Often times, they will speed up to stay ahead of you, but they won't maintain that speed because they don't really want to dive that fast. Not consciously, anyway. They just don't want to be passed. As long as you keep cruise control on, you will catch them again and again, and they will look at you as you pass them like YOU are the crazy one. I do this all the time because I commute a ridiculous amount, and this happens constantly. Male drivers, female drivers, black, white, asian, it doesn't matter. People get insecure when they're being passed like it's some kind of race. It's petty and it's despicable how awful we are to each other when there's the slightest chance that someone else might get something before us.

No, because people will see 80 and go “so what I’m going 89 which is only 9 over... at least I’m not going 100” Only way I’d support raising speed limits is if we enforce the actual limit. And still, with speed limits there needs to be a known minimum as well because someone can go 65 in the left lane and say “but I’m not speeding so what I’m doing is perfectly legal and safe” We need target speeds vs speed limits, we need different speeds for different lanes with 10mph differences in each lane such as 75, 65, 55 from left to right lane, and like I said earlier farther speeds need to be strictly enforced.

And I'd bet that traffic would disappear for the most part unless there's a wreak on the freeway, but with less heavy traffic (because you can actually pass people) we'd probably see less traffic accidents, and definitely fewer multiple car pileups. Funny thing, when traffic gets crazy slow I wonder, there's no accident, no bad weather, what's the hold up? Then I pass a cop using a radar gun and as soon as I pass him then traffic speed picks back up again. Nobody wants to get a speeding ticket, so it's funny that a cop sitting there can actually make traffic way worse. Most accidents on the freeway are due to lane changes, and when faster cars try passing slower cars they'll change lanes more, it's that changing lanes that causes problems. But what if the left lane were generally open? Then people are not likely to safely change lanes for passing maneuvers only, and then change lanes again once they've safely passed. So yeah, I totally agree, speeding isn't as big of a danger as constant lane changes.

The best thing on a high way is when a semi hogs the left lane going the speed limit. You literally cannot pass anyone
@tron1215 жыл бұрын
IMHO typically semi drivers are way better than your average car driver, they will take the passing lane on a two lane highway in town to avoid merging cars.
@Slowcarfastbeans5 жыл бұрын
tron121 And that’s fine but they need to be traveling at a speed that consistently overtakes the traffic in the lane to the right.

This makes me especially angry because it is illegal for semis to be in the left lane, period, in Florida.

Lack of lane discipline is also a problem in Canada. The worst are those who purposefully block the left lane in order to 'teach us a lesson'.

What drives me crazy is the people who can't read that a lane is ending in 1/2 mile etc. They either think that the sign is a lie or they can't read. This causes more traffic backup then it should. If people moved over way ahead of time there would be no jostling at the last moment for space.
