It hasn't revealed that at all, the problem with the passing lane slow pokes is universally recognized as a dangerous problem, the only people who's driving habits are being revealed on this thread, are those rare individuals who are causing the lane blocking problem, it isn't revealing anything about the traffic experts and the 99.99% of the driving public who want them to be stopped.
This isn't a fast driver, versus slow driver thread, it is about those strange eggs who block the passing lanes on purpose, and judging from their post, are determined to keep doing it if they can.
Remember that all the other lanes are affected by then blocking off the fast lane.
...thousands of faceless strangers and families and delivery people, and travelers.
Damn! You are my hero.
That sounds about right, except I-75 is a bit too slow...
I generally find liberals are speeders, not moderate drivers.
Speeders make the road more dangerous, not people driving at the speed limit. As I stated before, in my state (and every state I've been in, including your own domicile of California, IIRC) the left lane is not reserved exclusively for passing.
"As far as your personal attack, that you can’t find the proof for, it doesn’t surprise me that you keep claiming that it is just a google away, but that you can’t find it, it still doesn’t justify your cussing anyway."
You have called everyone on this thread who disagrees with you emotionally, mentally, and psychologically deficient, neurotic, egotistical...But "personal attacks" are of great concern to you? Either way,

Are a couple of examples of yourself employing the word in question. However, it occurs to me how absurd it is that I'm even defending myself from you on this, the use of one particular word in one instance, in light of the insulting, belittling, frequently dishonest, and aggressive speech and attitude you display towards nearly everyone you interact with. But you *generally* keep it "clean," so its all good,, eh?
LOL, the more you post the more you reveal about yourself.
To justify your cussing, you show me on a thread where I am trying to stop cussing, and another one from 2007 where in a discussion of a famous Indian, the most highly decorated Indian of the Vietnam War, an Airborne Ranger LRRP, I quoted his written description on his combat and the loss of Vietnam.
As far as you trying to justify your dangerous and emotional driving by pointing out that speeders are dangerous too, you ignore your own behavior and blocking the fast lane, disrupting traffic patterns, and doing it deliberately, that is a sick and dangerous way for you to try to compensate.
Quit causing dangerous conditions.
LOL, trying stop people from using the acronym SHTF, which in your mind comprises cussing...By spelling out the word you supposedly object to, even when others take issue with it. You will stop people from saying "S" by saying "Shit" yourself, in order to reduce cussing on the forum! And the other one, where you are quoting -- it doesn't matter. You supposedly object to the use of said word on the forum, yet use it under the excuse of "gee, somebody else said it first."
"As far as you trying to justify your dangerous and emotional driving by pointing out that speeders are dangerous too, you ignore your own behavior and blocking the fast lane, disrupting traffic patterns, and doing it deliberately, that is a sick and dangerous way for you to try to compensate."
I'm only blocking in the minds of people who consider the speed limit (or even slightly beyond) too slow. Such people display an extreme entitlement attitude -- screw the rules, get out of my way because I decide what speed is appropriate!
Yes, I was trying to stop people from incorporating SHTF and changing survivalism or prepper, to language that you prefer.
You admit that you block the fast lane and cause all the dangers and disruption of traffic flow that the laws are having to deal with.
Such people display an extreme entitlement attitude — screw the rules, I’m blocking this lane because I decide what speed is appropriate!
You clearly do have emotional problems, and in your car is where you act out on your ego issues.
What is baffling is your passion to block the fast lane, what is going on inside of you when you drive, that prevents you from moving to the right lanes and letting the world get on with their business?
What kind of ego is involved when no one can shake you from that deliberate behavior?
Because the "S" in SHTF is offensive (in your mind), you decided that repeatedly typing "shit" would be a good way to stop potty language. A brilliant plan no doubt, though perhaps not as effective as simply "legislating a solution."
"You admit that you block the fast lane and cause all the dangers and disruption of traffic flow that the laws are having to deal with."
On the contrary, I "admit" no such thing. I said that I am only blocking the left lane in the minds of people who want to surpass the speed limit and fly down the road with the vehicles in front of them parting like the red sea before their entitlement. You seem to be one such driver.
Evidently you are blocking the fast lane according to a growing number of states, the result is the dangerous disruption of smooth traffic flow, which is much more important than going Carter’s 55 mph, or the GOP’s 70 mph on the freeway
It is clearly some form of emotional activity for you, that you do on purpose, it is interesting to be able to get a close up look at one of you, it isn’t pretty to see.
Evidently we are hateful bigots for not supporting gayness, according to a growing number of states. What is your point? The opinions of state governments is unerring.
"the result is the dangerous disruption of smooth traffic flow,"
Oh, no doubt. There may be studies to prove this.
"It is clearly some form of emotional activity for you, that you do on purpose, it is interesting to be able to get a close up look at one of you, it isn’t pretty to see."
I'm tempted to tell you that speeding isn't going to make your donger any longer.
*NOT unerring.

I figure a large part of this problem was/is restricting trucks to the right two lanes.
This gives them an ‘ownership’ attitude and the ‘old days’ of Granpa running in the right lane at a speed where he was comfortable, what with the ‘owners’ of the lanes scaring the beegeesuz out of the ‘old right laners’, they have moved over to the left lane, ‘out of the way’.
Of course to some people, a truck doing the speed limit and coming up behind them scares them....
Were I a cop, my rule of thumb would be ‘If I am doing the posted speed limit or below and am passing you on the right, you are going to get a ticket for impeding traffic’.
Heavy traffic/rush hour excluded.
Maybe we ought to give the Interstates BACK to the Military and truckers, after all that was the original concept of Eisenhowers Interstate System - move Military and Goods.
Post 58 and 63, and 50, describe how cops and traffic experts think about these compulsive oddballs, they know that they are creating problems and dangers.
There are countless examples of Liberals reveling while successfully imposing their beliefs on others. Blocking other drivers and refusing to move to the right lane is but one example.
Another type of person who refuses to move is one which ansel12 has pointed out on this thread and done an excellent job of revealing to readers.
From your posts on this thread it may be difficult to know which type you are, but, as a professional driver, I see the danger you pose to other drivers on a daily basis.
