Ugh don’t remind me I will usually take 78-\>98 out to Arcade if I have to be out that way just because of that…

I’m a dick too then I guess, because I do the same thing. My deceleration rate is usually determined by how long I got stuck behind them, and how slow they were going.

(Their speed - my speed) \* time stuck = deceleration rate

oh gawd… more of this is definitely needed around here. It aggravates me to no end when I have to use my brakes on the highway. ??? :tdown: to that d-bag old man. Next week he’ll be driving through a farmers market or convenience store causing mass carnage.

Fantastic law. Left lane is for passing not fat ass pigs in minivans that need to assert their authority on the road. Get the fuck out of the way you lactating hippopotamus

I do the same.They usually move over.I love it when they try to brake check you for riding their ass in the left lane.I usually return the favor and they move to the center lane pretty quick.

If a car is going faster then you in the left lane just move over.Simple as that

Funny how people stereotype the problem as being minivan and suv drivers. I’ve spent a ton of time on the 90 and 9 times out of 10 it’s someone in a little economy car shitbox or tractor trailer that’s causing the problem. The SUV drivers are the ones tailgating anyone who doesn’t get the fuck out of their way, and the minivans are usually coasting along at 80 because they seem to be invisible to the cops.

That’s honestly the majority that I run into. I’ll give you Prius’s though… at a red light you’re better off getting behind the 4 cars in the right lane, than you are to be the second in line behind a Prius

and some stroke in a Taurus today did it… but so did an explorer, a jeep and a caravan  
EDIT: and some old guy in a lincoln

:word: They’re not going to drive slow. Driving an SUV in the first place is a strong indicator that the driver has something to prove. :uhh:

good law! but $206 is a bit steep. $100 would be fine.
