Left lanes are for passing vehicles, per Florida law

- How fast or slow a vehicle travels in a left lane can be a polarizing topic among Florida drivers, but state law requires all drivers to treat it as a passing lane.
Even if you’re driving the speed limit on the furthermost left lane, and another vehicle - driving faster than you - approaches you from behind, Florida law states you must move out of the left lane, Officer Roy with the Tampa Police Department explained on Good Day Tampa Bay.

left lane in miami is for cell phone use everybody knows that here
Hahahahaha!
Oh- interesting 🧐 haha. No body should be using cell phones while driving.
But pretty sure everybody probably does or has or likely may use one in the next day or two. Gig economy with phones= dangerous occupation because phones plus delivery driving of packages is too common. All gotta make the almighty dollar….
Should be the called a common sense law
Providence OPC-Bradenton agreed
And there in lies the problem. No frigging common sense.
Marvin Williams or in Oregon it would be under the Basic Rule law
It's great for highways but doesn't make sense on a city road where you'll encounter more left turn opportunities.
On a city road, I also stay on the passenger's side lane until in the block I am ready to make left turn. Being blocked from entering the left turn lane and having to wait for next green light is wasting time and gas, so assume other people would feel the same.
@@trekimpossible2850 tell any high traffic area to only use one lane in rush hour 🤣 I dare you
You're not looking for opportunities to turn left. You're looking to turn left at the appropriate time. You still don't need to be cruising along in the left lanywhere. Because traffic needs to be passing to the left not passing on any random side.
People need to be trained to pass on the same side and allow passing on the same side. So it's less chaotic howard driving.
Yes, sometimes you need to, but we're talking about anybody. That does it unnecessarily and makes excuses. It is for just automatically moving towards the left or towards the middle. There are situations where you turn left and immediately or soon. You need to turn left again but if you're not doing that. Stay to the right, maybe not the far right, but if you got multi lanes, stay towards the right, not the middle of the left whenever you can.
Just for courtesy common sense, safety the law etc. But just cause you don't have to is not an excuse or shouldn't be an excuse to be unsafely. In people's way just cause people shouldn't be going as fast as they're going. Doesn't mean we should add more danger to the situation
Remember everybody, the left lane is the passing lane. It's not the cruising lane. But it's not the "Put The Pedal To The Metal And Do What The H*ll You Wanna Do" lane, either.
Yup! And it’s not the, well I’m going 5 miles over the speed limit Lane either.
That’s when you realise how different countries are. Here I’d get fined for hogging in the middle lane let alone the left lane. And NEVER would a cop advise someone to undertake as it is simply illegal to do so 😅
What country is that? Certainly not UK.
@@billyporter1389 pretty much most well infrastructurally developed countries other than the US, observe lane discipline.
@@billyporter1389 having never driven outside of the United States before I found driving in the United Kingdom very easy because of the better drivers!. Of course London is a big city so it's going to be filled with a bunch of crappy drivers but driving through Scotland and Wales and half of England was very nice.
Many drivers don't know this fact and think left lane is for completely different purpouse!
It’s because for some weird reason, these people always get a pass from others who will say things like they just weren’t paying attention. If you’re not paying attention while you’re driving, you’re breaking the law you can’t say oh I was speeding because I wasn’t paying attention it’s not gonna fly, so it shouldn’t fly for this.
Uummm hasn’t this always been a thing?
Providence OPC-Bradenton RiiiiiiiggghhhtttTTT, well good luck with that.
Tell it to your grandparents living here in Florida.
Passing on the right or "undertaking" as they call it in the UK is actually prohibited in Europe.
Florida statute 316.081 (3)
Finally something good coming from Florida!
THIS IS A MAJOR !! PROBLEM ... AND TRYING TO GET AROUND THE SLOW VEHICLE IN THE LEFT LANE WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO MORE DANGEROUS WEAVING BETWEEN LANES. PUT UP SIGNS TO REMIND DRIVERS OF THE LAW ... AND ENFORCE THE LAW !!!!!!!!!
You can see the anger on his face! 😂 💀
I wish FHP would aggressively enforce this and run some public service announcements.
It causes more lane changing which is one of the causes of accidents.
Maybe when they also decide to aggressively enforce the speed limit and stop people from going 80+mph😂
Don't get me wrong I hate slow people in the left lane too, but technically, it is never permitted to speed regardless if you're passing. So if I'm already speeding, I'm not getting over so you can speed faster😂
Neither law surpasses the other.😂
Ignorant people allow your rights to be widdled away...🤮
@djdavisiscool Just remember that the law in Georgia doesn't apply like that. Our "Left Lane Slow Poke Law" does not cap at the speed limit. Meaning that in GA if you are driving 80mph in the left lane and a car approaching your rear is doing 95mph and the speed limit on that road is 70mph, you're still required by law to move over to the right to let them pass.
1:57 - Absolutely not, Florida law also says you cannot drive past the speed limit! Let's say the speed limit is 65 mph. If the person already in the "passing lane" is driving 65 mph, he cannot be overtaken unless you speed, which is against Florida law! No judge is going to give you a pass for speeding in the left lane to overtake someone. 2:50, he just contradicted himself!
Driving for Uber from my house- I don’t get many orders. When I start driving around- I get tons. Why?
I thought the purpose of the passing lane is to keep a clear lane so that emergency vehicles always have a travel route. Keeping a car’s space behind the car in front of you is ample space to pull to the side if there isnt a clear lane and one needs to be created.
Since I was in pre-school, it's been taught and insinuated that the left lane, at very least regarding state roads, interstates, and other highways, is the PASSING lane, and the right lane, is the "cruising" lane.... Well, too many misuse all lanes, even the HOV(HIGH OCCUPANCY(MORE THAN 1 PERSON IN VEHICLE DURING BUSINESS TRAFFIC)LANE...... For too long, I won't even bother throwing out any guess at just how long, far too many have ignored these state and federal mandated rules of the road, whether by racing in all lanes, or idling in all lanes, in whatever manner, or worse, there are too many losers who occupy what should be passing lanes, by matching the speed of the vehicle either immediately in front or behind them, with no clear consideration shown to anyone else, and these same losers develop and exhibit road rage, and too many of them intentionally risk and attempt to cause wrecks, when they perceive the car that is approaching them, especially in the left lane(s). If these losers would refrain from their bad displays of improper driving, and extreme displays of being void of courtesy and consideration, there would likely, in short order, be likely a 60% decrease in safety accidents across the entire board, which would mean that insurance premiums would be able to be forced to be decreased, even at the displeasure of any insurance company/lobbyist..... Now, Illinois, under the stewardship of Blago(yes he was crooked as capone), enacted a stiff and defined law, nearly 15 years ago, which was labeled, or stated as a "NO LOITERING" law, where by police are able and encouraged to cite anyone caught loitering in the ''PASSING" lane, especially when that loiterer does not show courtesy to any vehicles, especially emergency units, that come upon them in the left lane(s).... As far as I know, either the same time, before or shortly after, other states, such as Tennessee, and Florida actually considered, if not chose to write and enact similar citations/laws. Sadly, last I saw, all 3 states have lazily enforced these citations, and these and other states, instead of enforcing these reasonably citations/laws, have wasted money, and material, and chose to take the opposite route, rather than choose to beautify their highways and such, they chose, and to this day, choose to ruin the scenery, by, using I65 in the Nashville, Tennessee area as example, expanding the sizes of the road, by wastefully adding lanes, to the degree that they could just as easily land jetliners, instead of enforcing sensible laws and citations, and otherwise genuinely encouraging proper driving, and discouraging stupidity..... Anyway, unless the municipalities choose to enforce the laws already in effect, especially those that are just and or at least make fruitful sense, writing newer citations and laws like this, will do nothing to improve driving conditions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay you winded loser.
Good!
Speeders should love this law. So in other words you're giving speeders the right to break the law. Ridiculous! So I'm supposed to stay in the right lane until I want make a left turn. What if you can't make a left turn because you can't get over? Trying to get over at the last minute can cause accidents also. That's screwed up all the way around.
Stick to Uber then
You cannot get over is because everyone wants to stay in the left lane if they are not making left turn, that's the problem.
You can do exactly what you just said, if you are planning on making a left turn or let's say entering a express way the law doesn't apply. 98 percent of people speed studies show. Some cars have 3x better stopping distance then other cars and there are different conditions so one set speed for all conditions is the stupidest thing ever. Only idiot's always drive the speed limit.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize a hyper car on a drie day can drive faster then a Honda on a wet day with no difference in safety. Poor infrastructure is the reason. It should be possible to get a 2nd driver license that proves you van drive faster at the same safety as before and speed limits should be changed based on the every single whether condition but becuase the world is poor we are stuck with a ghetto system.
Just do some reflex revision techniques and drive a little bit quicker. No but seriously stay to the right on major highways I can tell you drive too slow by that answer
the left lane is also not for people driving over the speed limit and camping in the left lane
This is exactly what the guy just said. This was a redundant comment 😊
FL 316.086 says drive in the rightmost lane and pass to the left and then return to the right most lane.
It also says to flash your lights.
GA 40-6-40 says the only reasons for temporarily leaving the rigjt lane.
All states have laws to comply with federal regulations of this propwr lane usage.
It is illegal in the US to slow faster traffic out of the driving lane and in states with "SlowPoke" law it can be a road rage charge to block a faster moving even obviously speeding car.
Generating road rage can get you a road rage charge.
Obey the law and keep right except to pass.
So then what is the speed limit in the left hand lane then? Technically does that mean I can exceed the speed limit in the left hand lane solely because the guy behind me wants to go faster than the posted speed limit. What if the speed limit is 70 and the guy behind me is in my tail. If I just go fast to 80 , 90 ..what if that's not fast enough for him and I can't get over do i just keep going to 100?
Just get out and let him pass. Do self appointed traffic police have the powers to do what they like in US?
@@billyporter1389 you should know. You're the one crying to him to move over so you can continue putting people lives at risk
@@chrisruskai9341 Did you even read what I said. It's none of your business if someone else commits a driving offence, Mr self appointed Poleeese Officer.
@@billyporter1389 did you even read what I said hypocrite. If someone's breaking the law then leave it to the police instead of breaking 2 laws
@@chrisruskai9341 Moving back into the righthand lane to let someone behind pass is NOT breaking any law you imbecile. As I've said, it doesn't matter what speed they want to do it's none of your business.
I love it when everyone hangs out in the left lane.... less congestion for me in the right lane.
Right and how will theFHP get their revenue generating speeding tickets if someone is doing the speed limit in the left lane. Love to Mormon road block.
Slowpokes will never get a ticket, because when a speeder behind them sees a cop, he/she is bound to slow down....At that point the slowpoke is not required by the law to 'move over' because the car behind it is back to driving a normal speed. For that reason this law is almost never enforced.
So you're saying the only reason they are catching up to you is because they are breaking the law and that if they were following the law they wouldn't catch up to you...
It’s actually the thru lane
How about 'SLOWER TRAFFIC MOVE RIGHT' signs like we had 50 years ago?
Left lane has always been for passing, don't need new law, just need enforcement of existing law. New law will have zero effect if not enforced. Same goes for turn signals.
Is any enforcement force working on this? Please, do something and keep left lane empty of slow drivers!
Only way to solve this issue is for it to be required knowledge to pass a drivers test. Every time I drive to Miami on I 95 it’s literally faster to just stay in the right lane because nobody knows better.
Wonder if there are any laws against speeding or tailgating, he didn't mention the code about those, sorry never been to Florida.
great psa
THEN FREAKIN' ENFORCE THE LAW! I like Germany. It is illegal to pass on the right and illegal to imped the left lane and they ticket both. The left lane is a passing lane you are to be actively passing traffic then back to the right, it's not the haul ass lane. I just wish the police would enforce the law. Don't get me started on Driving Circles or Round abouts. Florida drivers have no idea how to navigate them and we keep building them like crazy.
How about 'flash to pass' as in the rest of the world?
That doesn't make any sense at all. So the left hand lane is the passing lane not the fast lane. But if your doing the speed limit in the left hand lane and someone is breaking the law and driving in excess of the speed limit and is trying to over take you, then the priority is for you who is obeying the speed limit to move over into the right hand lane possibly even having to exceed the speed limit yourself to get over into the right lane so that the person who is speeding and breaking the law behind you to be able to break the law even more and put everyone else on the road at risk and allow them to exceed the speed limit? I have to sit down with the people that thought this law through.
It's straight forward. If you are doing the speed limit while not overtaking get out of the overtaking lanes and let others pass irrespective of the speed they're doing. If you are overtaking then you are in your right to do so, and when complete get back into the rightmost lane.
Please repeat this message over and over again every week and enforce!
What about during a traffic jam? Then it's null and void?
Morenaso1, yes. But when the jam clears it becomes a thing again.
@Your President Wouldn't it be great if we all lived in theory land.
Please keep reposting this 🤦♂️
A second thought, though I promise a much smaller declaration; Too many people ignore and or incite problems on roadways, while occupying the "Cruising" lane, they show no desire or courtesy toward everyone else, by doing things, such as driving no slower than how they perceive those in the neighboring lanes, or, when a vehicle attempts to safely pass them, they accelerate to impede traffic, where by the passing vehicle commonly has to excessively speed up, usually 15mph above reason, just to even attempt to move over.... Likewise, there are too many dummies who do the slightly opposite, especially during heavy traffic, by intentionally retarding their speed, in the same vane intent/desire..... So, unless municipalities actually want to return to more 90's presence, where they actually post an acceptable quantity of patrol vehicles on high use roadways, especially on interstates, no newly written retread citation/law should be proposed or enacted! The left of 2 lanes, or the left 2 of a 4+ lane highway should be maintained as passing(not extra cruising) lanes
5 years later and still not a priority 🤦♂️
People in the comments justifying speeding no wonder you fools pay billions a year in tickets and y’all going for it
No slowpoke in Florida listens to this law.
Just like nobody listens to speed limits.
passing on the right is dangerous. The vehicle that is being passed could no see you as you might be in their blind spot. Stay off THE LEFT LANE UNLESS YOU ARE PASSING
People argue that them obeying the speed limit gives them the right to ignore these other laws. It will not work, it's already law. It already has been law but floridians are too ignorant it will not work.
It spent on the book for years Florida 316.081 (2)
Drive in the right most line except while passing, do your passing to the left and return to the right most lane.
Every single state has an equivalent law. Florida has 2 or 3 other redundant laws that say. Do not slow down faster traffic and keep right. Stay in the right most lane, but we ignorantly ignore them. The police don't want to obey that law. So they're not going to enforce that law.
Really the police don't know the law so they can't enforce it.
So why would this law not be equally ignored????
The speed limit is the only law that people's limited brains can handle.
Keep right except to pass is always the law. But people argue that it's not when there's not a sign blatantly telling them to get over.
If florida lawmakers are passing laws that ALREADY exist and too ignorant to realize these laws already exist. There's no way they're going to be able to enforce this one with so much perpetuated and supported ignorance.
People are just too ignorant entitled & argumentative to obey or recognise this law.
There are too many drivers on the road that are driving beyond their driving limit and making them be aware of as much as they're supposed to be aware of while they're driving, it's not realistic. It's not something they will agree with. It's not something they will obey. It's not something they will take part in. It will not work and I know this. Because it's always been that way and it has not worked. It's already law. It does not work because of ignorance.
Cops are people and cops are ignorant to the law. They will not enforce this law because they do not know. It exists because they do not want to have to obey it themselves.
People listen to their dumb. Daddy say getting one lane and stay there. But that's not legal driving the right most lane except while passing do not impede main street autumn paid means do not impede, but people make excuses for why they get to and why this doesn't apply to them.
Florida has redundant laws that already say this. But we are too ignorant to obey or enforce or realize.
This is worthless and has been proven over and over and over again. The law already exists the law already exists. We're too ignorant to know that the law already exists several times over.
People argue that obeying the speed limit gives them the right to ignore all of the other laws.
They trying to ban rap lyrics in court because rappers got everybody behind it as racist. Are these same rappers going to complain about this? This is something they don’t have to worry about being chauffeured.
Wow. A cop blatantly said that speeders have right of way. The law truly is arbitrary revenue collection for the states. It’s not about safety.
@Simba Simba translation: don't impede me from putting peoples lives at risk or else I'm going to selfishly make a decision to take an action to put more lives at risk by driving more recklessly to go around.
Leave the left lane drivers to the police.
The speed limit is outdated for performance cars by a long shot.
We have so much traffic in Sarasota now so it doesn't matter.
You would expect that BMW's did not come stock with turn signals in FL too.
James Dean that's how most idiots who live in Florida drive daily, all makes and models
A Morris: it's a trend to attack people with better cars, but yes NO CARS use turn signals in the south of the USA, Especially Florida.
When I move over so you can pass would you complete the pass and not slow down and drive beside me. If you want me to move over so you can pass try not tailgating, almost all of ya'll do. After i let you by would you please not apply the brakes in front of me so you can exit between me and the vehicle in front of me. Some times when i stay in the left lane its beause cars will be entering the freeway or i may be fixing to pass a slower motorist, this happens in heavy traffic. And if traffic is entering and vehicles are driving in the left lane, please don't bolt around on the right and cut in front, this is very dangerous and you are Not going to go any faster than the vehicle in front on me, cops do Not stop motorist for these actions. Also if i move over to let you pass in the Precious let lane why do most of you not move to the right lane after passing.... its only most, not all. and where is it written " serious question here " speed has priority over law abiding " obeying the speed limit " ???? Also why so many but not all people drive like they're running from the cops only to pull into a fast food resturant, this i also see constantly. Also try using your cruise control and not worring about every other motorist out there, it makes the drive much easier on the rest of us. And when was the last time you were almost involved in a crash with a motorist driving in the Left Lane?, my guess while you were tailgating. Most crashes occur because motorist are trying to get in front of other motorist. Remember you are not the only motorist on the road and this is Not Germany in the 1980s. Thank You for reading.
I'd also ask that if you're planning on passing someone, don't be planning to pass for 10 miles. Pass them within a minute and two and then move over. I get sick of sitting behind someone that's supposedly attempting to overtake another vehicle but doing it at .5 miles per hour faster than the vehicle they're attempting to pass. Pass the vehicle and move over. That's how it's done.
I used to yell at my wife for driving in the left lane the whole time, but then I realized, at least for her, it creates a safety bubble. No one can cut you off, they have to pass on the right. If they ride your tail just slow down until they have no choice but to go around.
That's very dangerous and foolish and your wife can get a ticket
I hope you’re joking. Just move over to the right and drive slow over there.
Florida police don’t even follow this law. GTFOH!
Too bad that law isn't ENFORCED!!! I've come to believe that the RIGHT lane is the passing lane!
Translation: you're impeding me from breaking one law so I will break 2 laws now and it's your fault I'm breaking both.
Geeze you must be from California
@@chrisruskai9341 I wouldn't step foot in Commie-fornia!!! And if you're going to be a flaming asshole and hold up everyone, yep. I'm passing on the right. Assholes who do that should take the bus!
Passing on the right is significantly more dangerous than flashing your lights at a driver who's incorrectly using the left lane. I'm not talking about being disrespectful; but quite frankly you should let that other driver know you're there and that you intend to overtake. You want to 'ask' them to move to the right so that everyone can proceed safely.
In free flowing traffic, you're on a 4 lane plus 70mph motorway and have an idiot doing 50mph in the leftmost lane. Are you saying everybody even those entering from the slip road and who wants to pass should move over and queue behind this idiot? If undertaking was so dangerous then it would be illegal.
most drivers in sumter county florida go into the left lane and never move over. it is a chronic problem. questioned the sheriffs office and got no answer. these people are very ignorant and do not care about other drivers on sumter county roads..the sheriffs dept are not enforcing statute 316.081

If they are too stupid to hog the outside lane then they are too stupid to know what you're flashing for. Just pass them on right.
Dear Florida Drivers: This applies on I-75 in Georgia too. Slower traffic must keep right, state law mandates the "flash to pass" method when you need to pass a slower vehicle ahead of you, and state law also explicitly forbids passing on the right side.
Your dealing with north Floridans we south Floridans hate them for the same reasons you do
I've done a few ride along shifts with the locals and one with FHP. I asked each one about this and they all said they would not issue a ticket to someone who passed above the speed limit and then moves back to the right and slows back down to a "reasonable speed".
I lived in Europe for many years. People may haul ass, but they know how to drive better than most Americans. I promise you will get out of the left hand lane there. The German Police are will ticket you if you impede traffic. BTW- You can't haul ass on every road in Germany. Much of the Autobahn has speed limits in many areas. Florida is awful because we also have no Primary texting law. You can not be pulled over for just texting, it has to be incident to another reason such as speeding along with texting. It's stupid and our rear end collision rate has sky rocketed. It's killing people and our legislature keeps dragging their feet on passing a primary "Distracted Driving" law which encompasses a lot more distractions than a cell phone. Example- Saw a guy reading the paper on his steering wheel one day. Nothing like time management.
My other complaint...……………round abouts. We keep building them and no one knows how to navigate them. Once again Europe taught me that one. They work if you utilize them correctly. The morons here either never yield or signal out of the circle. Yes turn signals are required in traffic circles to inform those which spoke you are exiting so the traffic can continue to move. Other wise the people stop at yield signs and wait when they could have kept the traffic flow moving. Others just keep "charging the circle" and never yield to anyone. Keep your head on a swivel. :)
Just because they wouldn't issue a ticket does not make it not a crime nor that they can't give you one, just like they don't actually ticket you for driving a reasonable speed in the left lane.
so this applies to even just a two lane he said two or more lanes I was confused at first thought it was for more than 2 lanes, I get over anyway if I feel I am blocking someone to go around it's not always easy to get over in a two lane tho when it's bumper to bumper , because of course no one wants to let you in front of them...lol
if there's stop lights.. this is pointless.. stupid law... on the highway it is different..
WOOOOOW okay, the officer just said if someone is not moving do not tailgate or flash lights just go around them... since they are in the left lane is he really suggesting us to pass someone on a highway on the right WOOOW I know you guys in the US are kinda crazy but wow, no thank you imma rather kiss his rear bumper and flash lights, that is much safer
Florida law 316.086 (2) says drive in the rightmost lane except while passing. The law does not say that the left lane is for passing it says the right lane is for driving in all other lanes for passing in this ignorant misquotation from the news is the reason we have so many illegal drivers.
Driving schools need better teaching 🤦♂️
BUT I'M MAKING A LEFT!!!
Just another way to generate more revenue for the state under guise of safety
How many people actually know this?
florida does not enforce statute 316.081 sub 3...the sheriffs dept in all counties aren't doing their job. enforce the law and do your JOB
Most stupidest thing to talk about , people are going 80 mph on i4 in every lane left middle and right lane every day 80 mph ,how about enforcing the speeding ? Hand out some damn tickets signs say 60-65 speed limit not 80. People go slow merging people don’t even stop at signs. Your not educating anyone by posting on you tube .
A bit of exaggeration I think. Many of those who use I4 are tourists from western Europe and are of a very high standard compaired to Americans especially Floridians.
I love it!! These slugs that block the left (the fast lane) need to be punished. I make sure that when Income upon one of these slugs when I pass them I cut back over as close to them as I can. Example this morning one of these losers cut right in front of a car about 3 ahead of me and then drove below the posted speed limit. Blocking traffic. Finally a break opened up and one by one we all passed that slug and shaved them off as we got back over. The slug started flashing lights and was met by the driver’s giving them the international sign for hello. What a punk. Next can we do something about these slugs that refuse to pull up normally in drive-thru’s that throw everything off? We already have a law prohibiting large trucks (18 wheelers, big box trucks, vehicles that are towing) from driving in the left lane. That would be awesome too!! My son calls these lousy liberal drivers. Love it b
Ah, so it’s the rude Florida drivers that are coming to other states that think I should move out of their way when I’m doing 5-10+ MPH over the speed limit in the left lane, already exceeding the rate of traffic and the lanes to my right are open. Makes so much sense now. Your laws breed entitlement.
Want to speed? Find your way around me.
that's a 2 way street cause when ever you out of state folk come to Florida yall think that its ok to hog the left lane and not get over and camp next to slow traffic in the right lane, cant tell you how many none Florida cars I pass on the way to work in the left lane a day my highest count was 60 and that was in 50miles. See in Florida most highway's a freeway are like the German autobahn its not a rare sight to see a group of 10 pickups doing around 90-100 together down the freeway and runnin 80 in 65's even semi trucks Ive seen runnin and 90 on the highways we want to get where we are going if there's room we will go right around you but if your playing games or playing on your phone were riding bumpers or passing you threw the grass its not entitlement its common sense the left is for faster traffic to pass.
Cause we got places to be and its not stuck behind you.
@@Dr.Mcstaby - Except it’s not at all like the autobahn because there is no speed limits with that. If I’m already in reasonable excess of the speed limit, there’s no reason I should get out of the way of someone who wants to break the law, getting to near felony speeds.
We’ve all got places to be. Doesn’t mean you can just ignore the speed limit and force people out of your way, especially if they are already over the limit. That my friend, is entitlement.
@@HiThisIsMinefortunately for us, and unfortunately for you more states are adopting laws that make camping the left lane illegal even if you're going above the speed limit.
If the normal flow of traffic is consistently going 10mph above the speed limit and your only going 5mph above the speed limit and are camping the left lane, you are in violation of these laws.
@@frase32 - I don’t “camp” in the left lane. I am typically outpacing all the other vehicles… that is, until someone with a big ego gets behind me and thinks changing lanes is my problem. I don’t hold up traffic… it’s always the one guy who feels they’re in the right and could easily go around, but instead they choose to tailgate… which by the way, is also illegal, in addition to going 10+ over the posted limit 😉
It’s funny how you’re trying to make a point about how fortunate it is that these laws are in place, yet you ignore the fact that these people are breaking the laws themselves. The irony of entitlement.
@@HiThisIsMine I regularly drive I90 in New York. The posted speed limit is 65mph. The flow of traffic is certainly at least 75mph if not 80mph. If your going 70 in the left lane and sit there because you raitonalize, "I'm going above the speed limit" you're going to have a line of cars piled up behind you.
The point of the left lane laws is to make sure that doesn't happen.
People who drive the left lane and don't get over when the normal flow of traffic is faster than them quite literally make the roads more dangerous. Which is why these laws are being enacted. But, at least you can take comfort in your perceived moral high ground.
