The worst left lane bandits drive in CA. The higher traffic density here doesn’t help matters either.

Most of which are truckers going 59 mph passing trucks going 58 mph. They should raise the truck speed limit to 65.

Didn't use to be: back in the '70s, the CHP would pull cars over and sometimes even ticket them if they rode out in the left lane much below the speed limit (65, 70 or 75 depending on the freeway) and did not move over for faster traffic, and they would ticket cars in the right lane if they were under the freeway minimum speed (then 45 mph).

It used to be a mildly unnerving experience to be cruising down a freeway at 72 (no tickets given unless you were more than 7 mph over) and finding a CHP black and white come up fast in your mirror, having them flash their overheads at you, and then whizzing by accelerating towards 80+ when you changed lanes.

gotta call you on that one....I-94 through macomb county is rated as the worst road in the state, and every retard in a minivan on the phone in the left lane at 50 MPH in a 70 MPH zone in the state lives and drives along this stretch of road...these are the same retards that never get in an accident, but accidents seem to happen all around them

I hate the California drivers who treat the speed limit as a minumum in ALL Lanes...particularly the right hand slow LANES
