Drivers who consistently drive on the far right lanes

Hey, at least they're in the right lane. All the slow drivers are in the left most lane here in Toronto.

True. I usually end up using the right lane to pass slow people in the left lane :|

What's so hard about going atleast the speed limit?

Umm, maybe you don't know this, but the speed limit is the fastest that you are supposed to drive not the slowest. Pretty much this whole post is worthless.

What is it with those people? Don't they even know the most basic of road rules?

You need to get your dumbass out of the fast lane. There's nothing worse than some idiot going the speed limit in the left lane. There is no excuse for this behavior. Who the hell taught you to drive anyway?

First off it isn't the fast lane, it's called the passing lane. Wanna know why? So you can pass people on the left who are going below the speed limit in the right lane. Want to know something else? The speed limit still applies to the passing lane. And I know it's bad form to answer a question with a question, but I feel I'm justified in echoing back this little gem "Who the hell taught you to drive anyway?"

Not necessarily. Traffic flow has to be taken into consideration. A person going much slower than traffic flow can be fined, not just the excessive speeders.

Actually he is correct, the limit is the limit.

Though the left lane is a passing lane only. So if someone is just sitting in that lane and has room to get back over with no one left to pass then he is now illegal.

People fined for under the limit must be posted, in many states it's 15 mph under the limit.

/Lesson on real driving, not from these kids in a hurry.

Well actually, this is more dependant on where you are. The cops here in the Toronto area will look past speeders if traffic flow is going above the speed limit. But if someone is slowly chugging along impeding traffic, 9 out of 10 times, they will get ticketed here.

if i'm somewhere where the limit is 65 i set the cruise to 72, still in the rightmost lane.

how the hell can you break the speed limit in the right lane?!?!? those days are like... once in a blue moon. heh

i don't hate the right laners as much as i hate the "can't stay a constant speed" folk. I'll be driving along, holding at 70... and a car will be going 65 or so and i'm to the left of it. as I approach, they speed up to match me. I don't care that much, except when I'm gradually passing them so I can get over to the right.

wait, why don't I just slow down and go around that way? because when I do.. THEY SLOW DOWN TOO.

don't try to understand it. unless you were born here you'll never be able to comprehend the actions of a massachusetts driver.
