13. Drivers who think there’s no speed limit in the left lane.

You need to stay out of the passing lane.

When people are passing you on the right, then you are in the wrong lane, MOVE.

Oh, so it is you that slows up traffic in the left(fast) lane. The left lane is best and safest for passing. If someone is behind you and trying to pass, please pull to the right.

Why do people going faster than you bother you? Assuming they don’t run you over, or cause an accident, what possibly can be annoying about someone in the left lane moving at a higher speed?

I am annoyed by people who pull into the left lane and then stay there even when people are right on their tail, when there is nobody in front of them and the lane next to them is clear.

Because forcing people to pass on the right is dangerous, and makes driving less safer for all of us. It is so easy to pop over to the right and let people go by.

In general, I also dislike drivers who get on “single-lane” roads, and drive slower than the speed limit, maybe with their flashers on, while backing up traffic behind them. I’m fine with people wanting to drive slower. But if you do, have the common courtesy to pull of the road from time to time to let normal people drive by you.

And for the record, if I think conditions make it unsafe to drive faster, and there is someone behind me, I ALWAYS pull off where safe and let them pass me. Not only is it the nice thing to do, but it is safer. And if they hit a patch of ice ahead, I’ll have warning.

13. Left lane drivers that think they’re enforcing the speed limit by driving the speed limit. I either give these types a heart attack when they have to slam on the brake when I re-enter the left hand lane a tad too early or they go into the ditch. Either way, they get out of the left hand lane. Pronto.

I consider the left lane to be the passing lane. There is no limit, but you need to be passing somebody.

In the left lane, you're either passing or blocking.
