I recently drove from the Northeast down to Texas and came across many drivers tootling along obliviously in the left lane on the interstates.
I found myself wondering: what are these people thinking? Aren't they aware of how they're causing a problem? Don't they notice all the people weaving around them while shaking fists and making other gestures?
My thoughts exactly? What are they thinking? I hope we have a few left-lane drivers here on FR so they can comment about the mind-set of these drivers. It seems to cross all ages also.
I live right off of 75 , I NEVER DRIVE ON 75,even in the "granny" lane if your not doing 80, your going much too slow.
NERVOUS NORVUS lyrics - "Transfusion"
ZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM
Tooling down the hightway doing 79
I'm a twin pipe papa and I'm feelin fine
Hey man dig that was that a red stop sign
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Transfusion, transfusion
I'm just a solid mess of contusions
Never, never, never gonna speed again
Slip the blood to me, Bud
I jump in my rod about a quarter to nine
I gotta make a date with that chick of mine
I cross the center line man you gotta make time-
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Transfusion, transfusion
Oh, man, I got the cotton pickin convolutions
Never, never, never gonna speed again
Shoot the juice to me, Bruce
My foot's on the throttle and it's made of lead
But I'm a fast ridding daddy with a real cool head
I'ma gonna pass a truck on the hill ahead-
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Transfusion, transfusion
My red corpsuckles (sic) are in mass confusion
Never, never, never gonna speed again
Pass the crimson to me, Jimson
I took a little drink and I'm feelin right
I can fly right over everything everything in sight
There's a slow poking cat I'm gonna pass him on the right
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Transfusion, transfusion
I'm a real gone paleface and that's no illusion
I'ma never never never gonna speed again
Pass the claret to me, Barrett
A rollin down the mountain on a rainy day
Oh, when you see me coming better start to pray
I'm a cuttin' up the road and I'm the boss all the way
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Transfusion, transfusion
Oh, doc, pardon me for this crazy intrusion
I'm never, never, never gonna speed again
Pump the fluid in me, Louie
I'm burning up the highway early this morn
I'm passing everybody oh nothing but corn
Man outa my way I don't drive with my horn
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Transfusion, transfusion
Oh, nurse I'm gonna make a new resolution
I'm never, never, never gonna speed again
Put a gallon in me, Alan
Oh, barnyard drivers are found in two classes
Line crowding hogs and speeding jackasses
So rememmber to slow down today
Hey, daddy-o
A make that type O, huh
Atta-boy
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Out is CA they have two limits with truckers @ 55 in the right lane. This make that lane almost unusable for most traffic forcing the moderate driver into the 80 mph left lane. What is amazing is that the CHP has even bought high performance Z-28's inorder to chase down speeding TRUCKERS!
There used to be a stretch of I-10 in western Louisiana where the right
lane was like a washboard, so a lot of folks just used the left lane.
It really slowed down the flow.
I've often said that a feature on Cadillacs known as "rearview mirror" is the least used one on the vehicle...
I knew a guy who drove from Los Angeles to Tucson. WHile in the desert, he stayed in the "shade" of a big semi for hours and blocked traffic! He thought it funny! What a jerk...
